What is Orion?

Orion is the new student information system that will replace SIS. The software is a PeopleSoft product. All students will be required to use Orion to register for fall 2009, view financial aid for fall 2009, and update personal information.

Additional functionality such as viewing your transcripts and making payments will be made available in late summer.

Students

You may register for fall 2009 classes and view your financial aid amongst other tasks. Enrollment appointments are available only to currently enrolled students.  If you have been admitted for a term, you may not be able to use Orion until your record has been updated.

Review how to use Orion. Then, log in using your NetID and password. Don't have a NetID? Get one.

Applicants to the University

Review how to view your application status. Then, log in using the credentials you received.

Faculty

Faculty will use Orion to view class rosters and email students. Online grading will be available mid fall 2009.

You may register for an Orion training class or log in using your NetID and password.

What About Summer 2009?

Summer 2009 is the last semester SIS will be utilized.

Faculty and Staff Training

Faculty and staff may enroll in instructor-led training classes for using Orion. Classes are scheduled periodically to address navigation, registration, and the Faculty Center.
