Immigration Check-in Process
Your immigration check-in process will be conducted electronically.
Do not complete the check-in process until AFTER your arrival in the United States, as it requires information from our most recent I94 entrance information.
After the review, your check-in hold will be removed, and you will be notified via email that you can register for classes.

How to Register for Classes
Undergraduate students: You should contact your academic advisor or faculty advisor prior to your course registration (mandatory).
Graduate students: Graduate students will have their department orientation, which is separate from UCIE orientation, and will register for classes during that department orientation. Please contact your department for more information.
Please review these links on how you can register for the classes.
Updating Your Address
After your arrival, please update your local address in WINGS. Learn more about updating your address on Wings Express.
If You Get Sick
You are automatically enrolled into the Wright State Health Insurance plan unless you are covered under another approved insurance. If you develop symptoms of COVID-19, you should seek medical care right away. Student Health Services (937-245-7200) is the preferred point of first contact for Dayton Campus students. Student Health Services can conduct a telehealth appointment to assess symptoms and refer students for testing.
Health Insurance Coverage
Student Health Insurance Information
Health Insurance Card:
Students will need to log in to their account to request a physical insurance card: Log In to Your Anthem Account
The most convenient way is to download an app called Sydney Health app. Students will be able to see their card there. Sydney Health on the App Store or Sydney Health - Apps on Google Play
Students can view the Health Insurance PPT for more information.
Health Care Resources:
To find more information about Health Care services, please view the "Health Care Resources" guide book.
For the fall term, your Wright State health insurance coverage starts on August 28 prior to the start of fall semester classes. For the spring term, the Wright State health insurance starts on the first day of spring semester classes. If you are already in the country prior to the effective start dates for each semester, we HIGHLY recommend you purchase a temporary health insurance plan. Here is a link to our Health Insurance partner and their short-term insurance plans: www.uhone.com.
