Welcome Global Jags

 

Congratulations on being admitted to the University of South Alabama! Below, you will find Information to guide you as you prepare to come to Mobile. We can’t wait to meet you! 

Congratulations on your acceptance to the University of South Alabama! You will first need to activate your Jag Net account.  Once you activate your Jag Net account, you can access your Jag Mail (university-wide email), submit immigration documents, register for Passport to South orientation, access your student account, PAWS, and register for classes.

Passport to South orientation is designed to help new students have a successful start to their academic journey at the University of South Alabama. During this session, you will learn more about the university, campus resources, getting involved, and essential immigration regulations. 

For new incoming Global Jags for Fall 2025, Passport to South orientation will occur on Thursday, August 14, 2025, at the Student Center. Check-in will begin at 9 a.m. in the Student Center Mall area. Sessions will take place in various locations throughout the Student Center. 

The University of South Alabama has thirty-three residence halls among seven residential communities. Living on campus allows you to meet other Jaguars, have residential community support, and be convenient for everything around campus! One way to make living on campus convenient is for all residents to have a meal plan. These meal plans allow residents to access our dining facilities and other dining locations around campus. The University has a First-Year Residency Policy, which states first-time undergraduate students are required to live on campus for up to one academic year.
