Orientation

Freshman Orientation Schedule

Tentative Student Schedule

This schedule is subject to change.  All of the programs for student Orientation are required.  Students will be busy from 8:00 a.m. to after 7:00 p.m. on the first day and 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on the second day.  Class registration is at the end of Day 2 and we cannot guarantee students will be done until 5:00 p.m.

It is important that students make arrangements to be here for all of Orientation, as they will not be allowed to register for classes if they have not attended all orientation sessions. We cannot guarantee that students will be finished prior to 5:00 p.m on Day 2 of Orientation.
