Summer Orientation
Advisement & Registration is a mandatory program that each new student must attend to be able to register for classes. These sessions will be conducted through an in-person orientation session. During this time, you will learn about your chosen academic program, interact with your peers, work with a faculty advisor, and register for classes. Take this time to talk about your course schedule for the fall and your academic interests.
