Dual Diploma Programs:
Online Application Instructions
Fall 2016 Deadline: June 30, 2016
• Binghamton University has established an online application system using ‘Terra
Dotta’ Software. Dual Diploma students who plan to attend Binghamton University
starting fall 2016 will create an online account and use this system to complete
the required paperwork, and track the status of their Binghamton application. We
hope you will find these instructions helpful with this process.
• The Fall 2016 deadline is June 30; your online application should be complete by
this date. Please contact Valerie Chou at the Binghamton Dual Diploma office at
ddiploma@binghamton.edu with any questions regarding how to access the system,
complete the requirements, and to review the status of your application.

Binghamton University (BU) email address and B number. You will need
both information to activate your BU accounts and DDP online application
account.
