New Student Orientation Advising & Registration and Parent Orientation

New Student Completion Event

All accepted new students are strongly encouraged to attend New Student Completion Event. Students are invited to attend New Student Completion Event after acceptance to the College and after completion of proficiency testing. Each event will have a short advising prep presentation followed by course discussions with an advisor in small groups, communications with Student Financial Services, and other on-boarding assistance will be available. 

New Student Orientation

Once you complete Class Registration, you will choose your Orientation date. Orientations are grouped by the Guided Pathway your program falls into and/or student type. During orientation, which happens in the weeks prior to each semester, you will meet fellow students, interact with academic staff, learn key skills to navigate college, and complete your last-minute details (e.g., get books, ID, parking pass, etc.). 

Parent Orientations

Parent Orientations run separately from the student program and focus on a variety of topics of interest to parents of new students. We encourage parents to attend and learn about the College and explore the various experiences and challenges students may experience during their first year. The support and encouragement students receive from family members often contribute to their success.
