You will receive instructions in your personal email on how to access your ESU student email account after your deposit is received.

Your ESU email address will follow the format: userID@live.esu.edu.

All official communications from university offices will be sent to your ESU student email, so it’s important to check it regularly. For easy access, we recommend downloading the Microsoft Outlook app on your mobile device.

Don’t forget to register for a New Student Orientation session!

Orientation is mandatory for all incoming students, and you must attend one full session to complete your enrollment process.

About two weeks before your scheduled Orientation, you’ll receive an email at your ESU student email address with instructions and a link to upload your photo for your eCard.

Your student ID card will be printed and ready for you to pick up on your Orientation day—so don’t forget to submit your photo on time!

Student health records are managed through the LVH-Pocono Medicat Portal.

New students can either upload their health information online or complete the necessary forms during their first visit to the Student Health Center. Health history is not required for admission.

To access the portal, select East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania and log in with your ESU credentials. Optional health history and consent forms can be completed using the Forms tab.

You’ll receive an email with instructions on how to complete your housing application. It’s important to follow the steps provided in that email to secure your on-campus housing.

First-year students who live within a 45-mile radius of campus, along with certain transfer and non-traditional students, may be eligible to commute to ESU. To request approval, students must complete and submit the Residential Life and Housing Release Application for consideration.

If you have questions or want to explore more about living at ESU, including residence hall options, amenities, and important deadlines, be sure to visit the Residential Life & Housing website.

To finalize your enrollment and secure financial aid, all final official transcripts must be submitted to ESU.

• Dual Enrollment or College Courses in High School: Contact the college or university where you took the course(s) and request that your official transcript be sent to admission@esu.edu.
• Transfer Students:
  • If you’ve earned more than a minimum of 12 college credits, a final high school transcript is not required.
  • Applicants with fewer than 12 college credits attempted at the time of application will be evaluated using a combination of their official college transcripts, and their high school record.

All incoming students are required to complete the ALEKS Placement, Preparation and Learning (PPL) Assessment to determine readiness for math courses. This online assessment takes about 60–90 minutes and helps identify strengths and areas for improvement.
