On-Line Preliminary Check-In

We recommend that you complete the online check-in as soon as possible! When you log in you will notice a Registration Check-In Hold has been placed on your account. You will not be able to make changes to your schedule until you complete the Preliminary Check-In. Click the link provided under the hold or click on “Check-In” under the column title - MyProfile.

You will be asked to Verify your Degree Information. When you click on this link your degree, major(s), minor(s), and concentration(s) will appear. Please check the appropriate box indicating if the information is accurate or needs updated. If you are a first-year student your major will appear as 'Freshman Student'. You will have the opportunity to officially declare your major/minor the beginning of February.  When you return to campus our first-year advisor will be in contact with you regarding declarations. If you are a senior or rising senior (72 or more completed credits) you will be asked to provide graduation information. After reviewing all the information Click the ‘Submit Degree Verification’ when finished.

Next you should update your Emergency Contact Information. If there would be a college-wide emergency, we need to be able to contact you. Please add the Self information, if it is not already listed or inaccurate. This information is kept confidential and only used in an actual emergency. Please review or add other family members as Emergency Contacts. More than one can be listed. When you add an Emergency Contact, the screen will indicate that the “Emergency Contact was updated successfully.” After adding all contacts, you will need to go back to the Emergency Contact page and click VALIDATE to complete the update. [NOTE: The VALIDATE button will not appear if you have no emergency contacts listed.]

Lastly, you should update your Personal Information. NOTE – YOU CAN IGNORE THE COUNTY AND LOCALITY INFORMATION SINCE WE DO NOT TRACK THIS INFORMATION. We do not list the “@etown.edu” as part of your email address in our computer system. If the prefix is correct, then the email is correct. If the information is accurate click VALIDATE (available at the top or bottom of screen). If corrections are necessary, make changes than click SUBMIT. Review the suggested changes then click SUBMIT.  Review the suggested changes then click SUBMIT again.

When the Preliminary Check-In is complete (all Update Boxes are marked complete), your Registration Check-In Hold will be removed. We strongly recommend that you log out and log back in to be sure the hold has been removed.

To avoid delays during the Check-In/Validation, please complete the Preliminary Check-in as soon as possible. We can not validate your ID if this process is not complete. If you will be studying abroad in the spring you still need to complete the pre-liminary check-in.  If you have any questions regarding this, feel free to contact Debbie Althoff at 717-361-1423 or Laureen Lee at 717-361-1409.
