Next Steps for Admitted Students

Your Path to Becoming a Cowboy

If you’ve already applied and been accepted to the University of Wyoming—congratulations! You’re on your way, but there are a few important steps to take next. Start by activating your WyoWeb account, your hub for everything from class registration to financial aid. Set up your username and password to access your personalized checklist in WyoRecords. Then, confirm your enrollment by submitting your $300 deposit by May 1 to secure your place—refundable until May 2. If admitted after May 1, submit your deposit within three weeks (non-refundable). Once confirmed, you're ready to proceed with the next steps to prepare for your arrival on campus!
