About Student Information Online (SIO)

Student Information Online (SIO) is a secure website and essential resource that each student will frequently visit and use throughout their academic career. Students should ensure their SIO account is updated with their most recent contact information and emergency contact information.

  • Manage family and friend contact information and invite other individuals to view student account invoices, make payments, order verifications, and view schedules and grades through My Plaid Student

*Enrollment verifications cannot be accessed in SIO until you are registered for courses and enrolled (attending classes and having a current student account balance) for the semester. If you are registered but not yet enrolled, you can choose the "Registration Status" option when requesting a verification letter through SIO. If you are not yet registered for classes but need a letter stating that you are expected to enroll, email your request to uro-verifications@andrew.cmu.edu.
