Â
This week we're reminding you that you can sign up for the New Eagle Essentials webinar and access the Flight Ready! pre-orientation course. We also have a message from the One Card office on how to upload your picture! If you don't want to wait in long lines to get your One Card during Welcome Week, you should submit your photo ahead of time to have your card ready when you get to campus.
Â
We have clarity on what to expect with your student bill, so you can find more information on that below. The bill isn't due until August 1, so this is just an update on what your bill is going to look like and the timeline of when you can pay. Your proxy will also be receiving this information as well, but you can always give them a head's up!

💰 A bill is generated online as soon as you register for classes. BUT the bill is incomplete until housing and dining charges are added, and financial aid is posted.
On or about July 1, an email will be sent to you and your proxy notifying you that the bill is ready to be viewed online.Â

📸 Upload your One Card Photo |
|
|
Don't want to wait in line or take a photo in our office? Simply upload a photo, and your AU One Card is one more step closer to being printed. Your AU One Card is your university ID that gives you access to your dorm, university buildings, the dining hall, and so much more!
The Office of One Card & Dining Services accepts online photo submissions that meet photo requirements throughout the academic year. Community members may provide a photo update to update a lost, stolen, or replacement One Card as needed.
For New Eagles, you must submit your photo by July 15.

|
- Do use a light, solid white, or blue-colored background
- Do submit a color photo
- Do submit a photo that is at least 300 x 375 pixels
|
- Don't include personal belongings, other people, pets, silly faces, or hands.

Don't look away from the camera or obscure a front view of your full face and shoulders
- Don't wear sunglasses or hats (exception of religious head coverings)
