Next Steps for Admitted Students

 

Before you can begin using goNSU and GreenMail, you'll need to retrieve your User ID and Password. You'll be asked for your NSU ID# (sometimes referred to as Banner ID)- it is included on your acceptance letter.

To start this process:

Go to welcome.nsuok.edu for instructions on gaining access to your student account.

If you need help, call our service desk at 918-444-5678.

goNSU is the online portal to almost everything at NSU. It allows easy access to your financial aid awards, account balance, transcripts, semester schedule, advisement session and to enroll in courses. Note: You will not be able to login to goNSU until the semester you have been admitted for is opened.

You can also access your NSU email account, or GreenMail, through goNSU. GreenMail is how you will receive important NSU correspondence. The Office of Student Financial Services will communicate exclusively through GreenMail, so check it often.

The Office of Student Financial Services is ready to keep your education as affordable as possible by letting you know about all available options, including federal student aid.

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is available Oct. 1. For Oklahoma Tuition Aid Grant (OTAG) consideration please complete your FAFSA as soon as possible after Oct. 1, 2016. OTAG funds will be awarded to those eligible, until funds have been expended. (Note: Payment of OTAG will be based on availability of funds.) Make sure to get a personal I.D. number at fsaid.ed.gov and complete the FAFSA online at www.fafsa.gov. NSU's school code is 003161.

For more information, visit the Office of Student Financial Services. Don't be fooled by websites that make you pay to fill out your FAFSA.

Be sure to apply for scholarships. Northeastern State University offers a variety of scholarships to incoming students. The process is quick and easy, and you can apply for multiple scholarships on one application. We have scholarships based on academic merit, as well as many privately funded scholarships for students with financial need, children of alumni and many more. Begin the process online by visiting the Scholarship Office.
