Due to the ongoing considerations related to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Pre-College program will be offered only through remote instruction in the summer of 2021.
Congratulations on your Pre-College admittance!
Please complete the following steps to finalize your enrollment.
This information applies to students who have been admitted to AI4All @ Carnegie Mellon, Architecture, Art, Computational Biology, Computer Science Scholars, Design, Drama, Music, National High School Game Academy, Summer Academy for Math and Science (SAMS), Summer Session, and Writing & Culture.
Step 1: Submit your Enrollment Reply Form
Admitted students will have 10 days to submit their enrollment reply form, which will secure their spot in the program.
Step 2: Complete FirstPass process
Approximately one week after the enrollment reply form has been received, you will receive an email entitled “FirstPass: Setting Your Andrew Account Password” from it-help@cmu.edu with instructions on how to complete the process.
Step 3: Log on to Student Information Online (SIO)
After completing the FirstPass process, you will have access to the Student Information Online (SIO) where you will be able to verify biographical information, and pay any remaining balance.
Step 4: Verify your information in the MY INFO tab on SIO
Under the My Info tab on SIO, verify that the Permanent Address, Personal Email, and Mobile Phone information is correct. Additionally, ensure that the information is the student’s rather than that of the parent or guardian. This information is used for our emergency alert system, so it is imperative for the information to be that of the student.
Step 5: Pay Any Remaining Balance by May 15
Log in to SIO in order to pay your account balance. Verify the full program costs on the 2021 Program Costs sheet (Note: Your paid deposit should be deducted from the program cost). We recommend making this payment through SIO. Navigate to the Finances tab and link a bank account to make payments. Additional payment options information may be found on the Billing site. If you do not submit your balance in full by May 15, your enrollment will be cancelled.
Step 6: Complete and Submit Enrollment Forms
Log in to the enrollment portal and submit the required enrollment forms. The deadline for submitting all of the enrollment materials is 4 weeks after notification of admission or May 1, whichever date occurs first. You will receive an email entitled “[CMU Pre-College] Enrolling in the Carnegie Mellon University Pre-College Program” from pc-life@andrew.cmu.edu with further instructions on how to access the enrollment portal. Please check your spam folder if you do not see it in your inbox.
Step 7: Submit a Photo by June 1
Visit ID Card Services for instructions. You will not be issued an ID card. We will use your photo to identify you during online instruction and events / activities.
