It’s that time of the year again! IUP Day, scheduled for Thursday, August 28, from 3:00 to 6:00 p.m. in the KCAC, is fast approaching. This annual event showcases all of the student organizations and clubs that IUP has to offer. Not only is this a great time to spread your wings and find things that pique your interest, but it also offers you a unique opportunity to “find your people” all in one location.  

Students meeting with organizations and groups at IUP Day

Again, we got you covered with the English Equestrian Club.

Yes! Due to everyone receiving new OneSIS ID numbers, all returning students must obtain new I-Cards. To ease the transition, your current I-Card will still work in the housing and dining system. You will not need the latest style of I-Card to eat at the dining hall.

When it is convenient for you, please stop by Clark Hall to exchange your old I-Card for the new style that includes your new University ID. Please have your new ID number, which begins with the letter “P,” ready when you come to Clark Hall. This can be found in the MyIUP Portal under the card “Your New Banner ID.” Clark Hall is open Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m.–4:30 p.m.

Your Navigator’s information is now located in MyIUP, on the Student Dashboard card pinned to your home screen. Once in the Student Dashboard, select the Student Profile, and you will find both your Primary Academic Advisor and your Navigator. 

Please log in to your new MyIUP Portal and verify that your information is correct. This information includes your personal/demographic information like name, address, phone number, etc., as well as academic info (i.e., major, minor, etc.). Our new system was implemented over the summer, and we want to ensure everything is accurate. Look for a communication from your Navigator for instructions on how to verify and update your information.

As part of the new system, you will need to set up proxy access for your parents and other authorized users. This process replaces the old Record Release Authorization. Proxy access will enable your chosen individuals to view specific information about your records, so it’s an important step to complete. You can find detailed instructions online to complete the process.
