Details for our September 12th Meeting:

  • Location: 26 E. Pearson St. (same classrooms we met in during our summer meetings)
  • Time: We will meet from 9am-4pm, as usual with a break for lunch.
  • Bring one random item with you to the meeting (and we mean random… in fact we mean QuickFIre random).
  • Kyle and Punya will not be able to join us in person, but will be there in spirit! We are excited that Leigh Wolf (program coordinator along with Punya & Sonya) will be there. 

There are four administrative tasks to complete ASAP:

1. Make sure your MSU email is forwarded to an email account you check regularly.

  • Just a reminder that it is extremely important to follow messages sent to your @msu.edu email account via the MSU Registrar. So be sure that your MSU email has been forwarded to an account that you check regularly. To forward your msu.edu email, log into https://mail.msu.edu and choose MSU Prefs forwarding address section and enter the email address you want your MSU mail to be forwarded to. And yes, don’t forget to hit “Save.”
  • Note, if you are having trouble with your MSU NetID (email username) you can go to https://netide.msu.edu/manage/index.html

2. Confirm your attendance in MSU’s StuInfo (https://stuinfo.msu.edu/)

  • Please make sure that you have confirmed attendance. If you do not confirm attendance, you may be subject to paying a late fee.

3. Make sure your Direct Deposit Information is correct in MSU’s StuInfo (https://stuinfo.msu.edu/)

  • Please make sure your Direct Deposit information is set up correctly as your first fellowship will be dispersed in November. To do this, simply login and then under the “Quick Links” click on “Direct Deposit” and/or “Confirm Attendance”
  • NOTE: IF you do not set up Direct Deposit you will have to come to East Lansing in person to pick up  your check. For liability reasons the university will not send out the checks via mail.

4. Confirm your grade is correct in MSU’s StuInfo (https://stuinfo.msu.edu/)

  • You received an email with final summer feedback and your grade. You can access your official grades via StuInfo>Academics>Grades.
We hope that you have fabulous first week back to school and can’t wait to see you in soon!
