Student Checklist

1. Set up your TMU online identity

To use TMU’s online tools, including email and D2L Brightspace learning system, you must first activate your TMU online identity. Without this, you will not be able to access any student systems, including Service Hub to enroll in classes. Visit the Undergraduate Student Guide website for more information.

2. Get your Student OneCard

Your Student OneCard is one of the most important tools you’ll need while at TMU. Not only is it your official student identification, it also grants you access to campus services and discounts.

You can use your OneCard to take out materials from the Library, access buildings and labs, use photocopiers and equipment, and much more. Visit the OneCard website to learn more and get your card.

3. Ask for help if you need it

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask. For general inquiries about your curriculum or financial aid, please visit the Registrar’s website. For inquiries related to your academic success, please contact a member of the Indigenous Student Services team and we’ll try and point you in the right direction.

4. Pay your tuition fees

Don’t forget to pay for your TMU fees! If you forget to pay them, TMU can withhold course marks, health care services and add late fees. Visit the Registrar’s Office website for more information. If you need help with this system, contact a member of the Indigenous Student Services team.
