Submit Your Enrollment Deposit
First things first – you’ll need to create login credentials for your My.Bushnell account, your personalized student portal, and submit your enrollment deposit by following the steps below.
1. Create your password.
Enter your personal Bushnell username that was emailed to you following your acceptance to the University into the first-time login portal. Hint: if you are unsure of your Bushnell username or have misplaced it, don’t worry! Simply contact your admissions counselor at 541-684-7201 and they can provide you that information.
2. Login to My.Bushnell and review your Admitted Student Hub.
Once you are able to login to My.Bushnell you’ll find a personalized list of enrollment steps and resources. Go ahead and bookmark the site — you’ll return to it frequently as you complete your enrollment.
3. Submit your enrollment deposit via My.Bushnell.
Submitting your enrollment deposit is your way of telling us that we’ll see you this fall. Once you deposit, you will be able to register for classes and receive your housing assignment. The priority deadline for deposits is May 1st for the fall semester and December 1st for the spring semester.

Other Important Steps
Here you’ll find all the information you’ll need to prepare for your first year on campus.
Once you have submitted your tuition deposit, you will be eligible to register for courses. New student registration appointments will begin in late May.
Every student is assigned an academic advisor who will work with you throughout your time at Bushnell. First year students will also be part of a First Year Seminar course your first semester, led by a faculty and staff member. You can expect to hear from them over the summer.
Check your My.Bushnell portal for more information on advising/registration appointments!
A financial aid award letter will be made once you are admitted and have completed the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Financial aid awards for fall semester applicants are traditionally granted in the spring prior to enrollment, or for spring semester applicants in the fall prior to enrollment. Should you have any questions about the process or your specific financial aid award, you may contact the Financial Aid Office at 541-684-7291 or finaid@bushnell.edu or your admissions counselor.
Campus visits are an important step in the college search, particularly as you near the end of your decision-making process. We offer a number of exclusive visit options—including both on-campus and virtual options. View options and schedule your campus visit.
We’re a social university, and now that you’re a part of the Beacon family, we encourage you to connect!
Access to Bushnell’s virtual bookstore will be available within your My.Bushnell portal. You may purchase books from any retailer but please make sure you order the exact edition specified in the bookstore.
