New admits: it's time time to sign up for Online Orientation.
As an incoming student, you are required to complete Online Orientation. After completing Online Orientation, you will schedule a time to enroll in classes. Please follow the instructions outlined in Online Orientation to learn all about your next steps.
NOTE: Each college/program offers different types of enrollment experiences for incoming students. Your summer enrollment experience might look different than your friend's - and that's okay!
How to Sign Up:
