Once you’re admitted to college, you’ll quickly find out there’s a lot to balance. There’s new email addresses, lots of offices and websites, and a long list of tasks to complete before the first day of class.

That’s where RAMweb and your Ram Start Checklist come in.

This checklist is a customized look into your journey because, let’s face it, your journey looks different than your classmates’. You might complete tasks at a different pace or have different interests, and that’s OK.

What can the checklist do?

Your checklist will help you track important tasks, like applying for financial aid, signing up for orientation, and applying for on-campus housing. As you complete tasks, you’ll see the corresponding status update along with detailed information about what’s next.

The best part? Your checklist will be constantly updated throughout the year to make sure you have the best information at your fingertips when you’re ready for it.
