New Student Checklist

Welcome to the USC Salkehatchie Family! Now that you have been admitted, we invite you to use this page as a new student checklist in preparation for the upcoming semester.

 

Pre-Registration Checklist

  • Set up your account. (You will need the VIP ID from your acceptance letter to claim your account)
  • Be sure to save your user name, user id, email and password. 
  • For step-by-step guidance, watch our Account Setup Tutorial.
New students are required to attend new student orientation.  Orientation is a one-day event held prior to the beginning of the fall semester.  Multiple date options help ensure you will have the opportunity to attend.  Register early to ensure seat availability.  

 Post-Registration Checklist

  • Once your final high school grades are posted, be sure to submit your official transcripts to our admissions office at SALKREG@mailbox.sc.edu.
  • Submit your college transcript, if applicable (transfer and dual enrollment students)
  • Official transcripts can also be mailed to:
    USC Salkehatchie, P.O. Box 617, Allendale, SC 29810
  • If you would like to confirm if these have been received, call 803-525-2223 (call or text).
