Student Checklist
As a new
student, we realize you are trying to take in a lot of information about
life at UST. The following checklist will assist you with remembering
some key things to be sure to accomplish during the first few weeks of
the semester.
- Email:
St. Thomas communicates with students quite extensively via email. Make
sure you check your St. Thomas email account at least once a week! To
set up your account, click here.
- Campus
Mailbox: Stop by the post office in the lower level of Murray-Herrick
Campus Center to get your mailbox assignment and combination.
- Health
Form Requirements:
All
undergraduates are required to have immunization records on file. All
undergraduate students registered for 12 or more credits are also
required to demonstrate health insurance coverage. And, all student
athletes are required (all other students recommended) to have a health
history form on file. All three of these requirements can be met by
entering information via Murphy
Online. Once you login, click on "Student Services & Financial Aid,"
and then "Student Health Menu." If you have questions call
651.962.6750. You can also download the form
here.
- Computer
Competency: Take the basic skills competency test online or visit one
of the three computer labs on campus. Visit O'Shaughnessy-Frey Library
to complete a library workshop (if you are taking English 111 or 190
this may be completed during class). Both activities should be done
during your first semester on campus! For more information see the
Computer
Competency webpage.
- Foreign
Language Placement: If you feel you have enough foreign language background
to test into a higher level or test out of the requirement completely,
contact the Modern and Classical Languages department at 651.962.5150.
- Math
Placement: To determine which math course is appropriate for you, contact
or stop by the Math
Resource Center (MaRC) to schedule an exam (651.962.5540, O'Shaugnessy
Science Hall, Room 235). Practice test problems are available online;click
here.
- Check
with Financial Aid. If you are receiving a Minnesota State Grant there
are maximum age and credit limitations - verify that your financial
aid will cover your St. Thomas education!
