At the University of Dayton, we understand that a college education is one of the most important investments you’ll make for your student's future.
Once you receive and review your student’s personalized financial aid offer, we’re here to help with any questions. If you or your student have any questions, we encourage you to:
- Explore our financial aid offer resources page with helpful videos, frequently asked questions and important information.
- Schedule a 1:1 meeting with your student’s admission counselor to discuss your family’s options and plan for success.

Porches is now open for confirmed students to take important next steps, including completing the housing contract, registering for orientation and more.
Accessing Porches
After confirming their enrollment, students receive an email to activate their Porches account. Once their account is activated, students can log in to Porches to access their personalized To-do List and begin completing tasks.
Students should continue checking their Porches To-do List for updates throughout the spring and summer.

The Office of Learning Resources (OLR) at UD empowers students by removing barriers. Students in all majors can access resources to help them perform at their highest academic level.
From accommodations for learning differences to tutoring for a challenging class, students can take advantage of a variety of services — all at no cost. In fact, more than half of first-year students utilize OLR services.

We hope that you and your student can join us on campus for an upcoming admission event or information session and tour.
