Orientation
The New Student Orientation program is designed to assist first-time freshmen and transfer students through the transition into the University of Northern Colorado. Family members are also encouraged to experience the university through Parent Orientation. First-time freshmen are expected to attend and participate in a two-day New Student Orientation session.
Transfer students are also encouraged to attend a one-day New Student Orientation. Orientation will provide essential information about the University, its academic policies and procedures, how to get involved on campus, and how to be a successful college student.
Freshmen will also receive academic advising and register for classes at New Student Orientation. Transfer students should make an appointment with their academic program to receive academic advising and assistance registering for classes. By separate mailing, newly admitted students will receive information on the New Student Orientation program. You may also visit the website at www.unco.edu/orientation.
