Step Three: Making Marietta College Home

Living on campus can be one of the most rewarding aspects of the college experience. As a residential community, we develop our distinctive ethos, our dedication to the whole student, and affirm the independence between life inside and outside of the classroom.

Log into the Residence website to fill out your application for housing (available April 1). You will have to wait 24 hours after your MyMarietta account is created before accessing the Residence Portal. The Office of Community Living uses the information that you provide to make housing assignments and to identify a potential roommate(s) for the Spring semester.

To access Residence:

To see what you should bring to campus, read the What to Bring page

Please call the Office of Student Life at 740.376.4784 if you have any questions.

Commuter Students:

If you are planning on commuting to Marietta College, you do not have to fill out the above form. Please complete the Commuter Application and send it to the Office of Community Living at ocl@marietta.edu.

If you are still trying to decide between living on campus and commuting, we would love to walk you through your options! Please call the Office of Admission at 740.376.4600 or the Office of Community Living at 740.376.4784 — we are happy to help!

Step Six: Financing Your Future at Marietta College

Marietta College Billing, Payment Options, and Related Information:

Bills are issued each semester. You will receive an email notification through your Marietta College email address that your bill is ready to view. You can grant others access to view your bill and make online payments by setting them up as a Proxy user.

Instructions for setting up a Proxy user are available here. If you do not add a Proxy user to your student account, you will be the only person that has the ability to receive billing notices and make online payments to your account.

Marietta College offers a set payment plan each semester for undergraduate students. For more details, please visit the payment options page.

Step Seven: Purchase Your Books

Once you’ve registered for classes, you can purchase your textbooks and other course materials using Marietta College’s eCampus Bookstore. This is an online bookstore, and no physical bookstore exists on campus, so you’ll need to use eCampus or another on-line vendor to purchase your textbooks and course materials.

You can have your textbooks and course materials delivered to your home address (make sure deliveries are scheduled to arrive prior to your departure for campus). Alternatively, you can have your purchases delivered to campus and pick them up when you arrive. If you order your items from eCampus and have them shipped to campus rather than your home address, they’ll be available for pick-up in the Pioneer Team Store in upper Gilman. If you order items from another vendor and have them shipped to campus rather than a home address, they will be available for pick-up through the College’s Mailroom in upper Gilman.

In order to purchase textbooks and course materials through Marietta College’s eCampus Bookstore, you’ll need to have your course schedule in front of you.
To find your course schedule:

  • Login to MyMarietta using your MC credentials (username and password).
  • Select ‘WebAdvisor for Students’ on the left side of the page.
  • Select ‘Academic Profile’ and then ‘My class schedule.’
  • Under the drop-down menu for ‘Term,’ select the appropriate semester and hit ‘Submit.’

With your class schedule in front of you, go to the Marietta College eCampus Bookstore website.

To purchase your books:

  • Use the ‘Textbooks’ drop-down menu on the upper left side of the page to select ‘Order.’
  • Use the drop-down menu in the top center of the page to select the appropriate term (e.g., Fall 2023).
  • Use your course schedule to enter the Department, Course, and Section for each of your classes.
  • Click the ‘Find Materials for Course(s)’ button at the bottom of the page.
  • For each item, select your preferred purchasing option.
  • Proceed to checkout.
