Check-In
Welcome Desk
You are the first impression! Bring your high-wattage, Boilermaker smile and show off your pearly whites!
Visitors check-in at the Boilermaker Station Welcome Center in Stewart 102 and will depart from right outside the Welcome Center. Begin by checking in the visitors on Slate using an iPad.
The iPads will either be located at the check-in counter or in the locker in the office. Turn on the device, and unlock it using the passcode: 1869.
Next, use the Slate Mobile App to complete the check-in process:

Time permitting, direct visitors to nearby amenities, such as restrooms across the hall, Starbucks on the ground floor of the PMU, or Stewart Market down the hall. Instruct visitors to return a few minutes before the tour so we are able to leave on time.

- Check to see if the visitor is already in our system - search for them in the "Registrant Name or Email Address" search bar. If there appears to be a match, confirm the date of birth.
- If the student is already in the system, the form should auto-complete most of the sections; if not, manually enter the student's information. Either way, be sure to answer the question about the number of guests accompanying the student.
