TRANSFERS & RETURNERS

New transfer and returning students will begin receiving email invitations to sign up for Golden Eagle Orientation on April 17, 2023. Please follow the steps in the email to complete your Orientation reservation.

Remote Orientation vs In-Person Orientation

We know that our transfer and returning communities have different needs and responsibilities. Attend in-person Orientation to receive the full experience, or, for your convenience, you may also select one of the Remote Orientation sessions (while spaces are available).
