Step by Step Process

What happens after you have been accepted?

You will be receiving your acceptance letter in the mail. This letter will include an enrollment checklist. You will need to log back into your student portal for next steps including completing your intent to register form, signing up for Orientation and applying for housing.

Once you are registered for classes you will receive a letter from our IT department including your GSU email and user name and password to apply for housing and access the EDNET system.  EDNET allows you to view grades, unofficial transcripts, financial aid information, registration status, course list, closed course list, and academic standing.

To log into EDNet:

  1. Navigate to the Glenville State University website.
  2. Click "Current Students."
  3. Click on "EDNET."
  4. Click on "Enter Secure Area."
  5. When the next page loads you will then be prompted to enter your User ID which is the last 8 digits of your student ID number.
  6. Your pin number is your birthday, but make sure you enter it as daymonthyear. For example, if your birthday is - December 31, 1989, your pin number would be 311289.
  7. If you need assistance please contact the Registrar's Office at 304-462-6120 or registrar@glenville.edu.

Decide on a Major

Currently, Glenville State offers five degree programs online. These are as follows:

Meeting with your Advisor 

You will be contacted by a Pioneer Support Counselor after you have been admitted and completed your intent to register form on the student portal.   Your counselor will work closely with you to register you for your first semester of courses. Soon after you are registered you will receive an email from Academic Affairs with your assigned academic advisor in your degree field. Your academic advisor will help you transition to university life. They will also help you develop an academic plan to earn your degree.
