OPUS and Emory Email

    Please read the following instructions and provide your electronic review certification below by selecting "Submit".
    Set Up OPUS Account
    Now that you've been admitted, a critical step in the process of becoming a Candler student is setting up your online accounts like OPUS (Online Pathway to University Students) and your campus email. OPUS is Emory University's main system of record for student information. Through OPUS, you will be able to access things like your academic records, financial aid, and the Course Atlas and Schedule Builder. 

    You will also need OPUS and your Emory email in order to pay your admissions deposit, register for classes, and receive important messages. Please set up your account ASAP to ensure that you have access to OPUS.

    Begin the process by following these steps:
    1. Navigate to https://opus.emory.edu.
    2. Click on the "Obtain Network ID and Password" link on the right side of the screen.
    3. Follow the instructions listed to enter required information and click "Get Network ID."

    Please note: 
    • The Network ID (NetID) and password you receive through this process will be different than the login information you used to access your Candler application.
    • It can take about 3 business days for the system to generate your new NetID.
    • Once you have your NetID, you will be able to log in to Emory sites such as OPUS and your Emory email via Microsoft Office. 
    • It will be important for you to use this site when applying for financial aid to check the status of your package and manage any outstanding items on your financial aid checklist.

    Pay Your Deposit
    Set up and log into your OPUS account and confirm your intention to enroll by submitting the $100 deposit within three weeks of receiving your scholarship notification. Next, Pay your deposit.

    Emory Email Account
    After you have placed your enrollment deposit, your official Emory student email address will be automatically generated within 48 - 72 hours. The web login can be found at email.emory.edu and you will need to login using the same NetID and password you utilize for OPUS to login.

    Duo Security Two-Factor Authentication Set-Up
    **After ** you have received your email address, your security access for OPUS will need to be updated by setting up Duo Security Two-factor authentication. This adds a second layer of security to your online accounts. Verifying your identity using a second factor (like your phone or other mobile device) prevents anyone but you from logging in, even if they know your password. Please complete the steps here to continue so that you are still able to log into OPUS.
    Please let us know if you have any additional questions!

    Please Note: This checklist item will be reviewed and updated at the time your deposit is processed.
