Guarini Graduate Student Council Handbook

First thing’s first: you’ll need to get your student ID, called a "DartCard". Head over to the Dartmouth Card Office in the basement of ’53 Commons to get yours made. Your DartCard connects you to various aspects of life at Dartmouth. You can also add money to it (called your DA$H account) in order to pay for food, tickets, vending machines, equipment rentals and more! Your DartCard also allows you free entry to the gym, and it’s your library card too!

Duo is a two-factor authentication service that is used instead of security questions. To set Duo up, navigate to "Dartmouth 2FA Enrollment" in your internet browser. Once your Duo is set up, whenever you enter your password for a Dartmouth-owned program (such as your email) Duo will request additional verification from something that only you have access to, like a smartphone or landline.

The DartHub Student System allows students to conduct official transactions and to obtain personal and academic information, including, grades. scheduling classes, managing your DA$H balance, tuition statements, health, record information, and checking in for the term. Don't forget, every time you log onto DartHub, Duo will request additional verification so make sure to have your secondary device nearby.

Before each term begins, all students are required to check-in for classes prior to registering. You can do this by clicking on the "All Tiles" link on the left, then click on the "Check In" button on DartHub.

There are two major WiFi networks that you can access: Eduroam and Dartmouth Public. To access Eduroam, you will need to do a one-time device configuration (instructions here). No configuration is necessary for Dartmouth Public, but you won't be able to access any services available only to students, faculty or staff.

This should be done as soon as you arrive on campus. Contact your specific program advisor to discuss your individual degree requirements. Once ready to register, simply log into DartHub, click on "Add/Drop/Course Selection" and follow the prompts. Note that not all courses are offered every term, so plan your schedule carefully. Course numbers below 100 are undergraduate offerings, while graduate level courses are over 100.

DartHub is also the place to complete your Incoming Student Health forms. Click on "Health Center On-Line Services", then click on "Forms" in the pop-up window. These forms must be complete before you arrive on campus.

Canvas is a web-based tool for teaching, learning, and collaboration. All Dartmouth classes are automatically provided with a Canvas site, although its use varies with the instructor. This is where assignments, online lectures, and grades are posted. You can log onto Canvas with your Dartmouth NetID and password.
