How to Register
You will register for NSO through your SDSU MyState account. This is the same portal you would have used to complete the housing application.
If you have not previously accessed MyState, please read the following information:
ACCESSING MYSTATE - You will need:
1. Your Jacks username
2. Your Jacks email password
NOTE: Both your username and how to get your password were emailed to you from the SDSU Admissions Office when you were admitted to the university. If you changed your password since receiving the email, please be sure to use your updated password to log in. If you have any issues accessing MyState, please reach out to the Support Desk at 605-688-6776.
AFTER SIGNING IN TO MYSTATE
