New Student Orientation: Transfer Students
New Student Orientation is for Tranfer students and will take place at the beginning of the fall and spring semesters. Our program is a one-day on-campus experience for all new incoming students before classes begin! Throughout this experience, students become more familiar with campus, learn about involvement opportunities and campus resources, and meet other new students while connecting with current student leaders. Our mission is to provide a smooth transition for students and their supporters from the institution they are transferring from to ATU.
