The New Student Checklist contains all the necessary steps for students to complete so they can be successful at JMU. First, accept your offer of admission and pay your deposit in the MyMadison Applicant Center. Once your deposit has been processed, you will receive an email (to the address you provided on your JMU application) to activate your eID in your new student role. The New Student Checklist is available for all incoming Spring 2026 students.
