Prospective UA students wishing to take a placement test in a location other than their campus of enrollment need to find a proctor (not a family member or friend) in their area and then follow the procedure for setting up a remote placement test according to the campus they plan on attending. Follow the link for campus of enrollment:

• UAS Juneau: Download the proctor agreement form.

Once your child's application for admission is processed, they will be given a student ID number that will enable them to access UAOnline where they can check on the status of their application, as well as apply for UA Scholarships.

Students do not have to share their UAS information with their parents or guardians.

Students may give permission to UAS to release any of their education record information, however they must complete an Education Record Information Release form and submit it with a copy of their government issued ID.

UAS Offers both a Fall and Spring Orientation program on the Juneau and Ketchikan Campuses. Orientation is required for all new degree seeking students who are registered for 12 credits or more.

We encourage student's to sign themselves up for Orientation. Often times if parents sign their child up for Orientation, the child is not aware of it,  the child submits one also, or the form does not have complete information listed.

You can always remind your child to sign up for Orientation, or complete the sign up together, which can be done online.

Students do not have to share their UAS information with their parents or guardians.
