Newly admitted students must log on to the University of Oklahoma's official email system and online services with the four steps listed to the right.

Course enrollment, tuition payment and accessing your grades are all accomplished online using your OUNet account. Many university departments and organizations (such as financial aid, student organizations, etc.) send important information to your OU email account. Your OUNet account is created for you automatically after you are admitted to OU. Now, you just need to access your account!
