Read these RULES, a lot of questions can be answered just by going through these.
Make a face claim for your character.
Look through the magical creatures list if you wish to be something a little different.
Then you decide whether you wish to be a student or an adult and post your profile
Post in the Your Vault thread so your earnings and loses can be documented.
Everyone must either post a new thread at Ollivander's Wand Shop or post at Bourgeois' Collections to find out what your wand is. You don't necessarily have to have lost it, you can be creative on why you need one or just get it fixed (only minor fixes of course).
You also have the option of applying for either a Order member or Death Eater position, but it's not mandatory.
Next, a good place to go is the Behavior Records. If you're a student, it's a way for Professors to keep track of your good and bad deeds. For an adult, it's a way to demonstrate what kind of student you were.
Another nice thing we have for you to use is the Relationship Status where you can post whom you are with or if you are single. An the Relationship Code to keep track of all your relationship with people as well as having others join in.
I like to, personally, create a Timeline to keep track of all my current and future threads.

- Students

Post in the sorting hat quiz so your house can be decided upon.
If you are interested in a job for 5-7th years only, which can only be taken up during the summer. You will be posting in you corresponding year for the student job application
Don't forget to Sign Up for classes. Once the class is ~~striked through~~ they are no longer accepting new students.
After that you should purchase all of your school supplies at the Apothecary, Flourish and Blott's, Madam Malkins, Magical Menagerie (if you want a pet), Quality Quidditch (if you want to take flying lessons).
Be sure to post in the Grades thread so that we can keep track of your Hogwarts grades through the years.

- Adults

This is not necessarily a requirement, but if you are looking for a job just post in the adult job application depending on which position appeals to you more.
