New Students

Welcome to Athabasca University!

As a new student, you must complete the Undergraduate General Application Form before you may register in a course.

Once you are admitted to Athabasca University, your student demographic information is entered into our system, a student account is created, and you are issued a student ID number. Using this ID number, you can log in to myAU, your personalized portal to Athabasca University. Through myAU, you will quickly access the information that is relevant to you.

As a new student, you may benefit from taking the online self-assessment questionnaire,
"Am I ready for Athabasca University."

Athabasca University's Student Services website offers information to new and returning students.
