We are serious about helping you succeed. The Graduate Student Orientation is designed for new graduate students and students who are returning after a break. We will help make sure you are ready to start that first class or pick up where you left off.

We offer orientation sessions via Zoom the week prior to the Fall 1 term in August, and the Spring 1 term in January. Sessions last approximately 90 minutes. Please check back here closer to the term start date to RSVP for an upcoming orientation.
