July Family and Supporter Orientation
New Student Orientation (NSO) is an optional program occurring in July for incoming first-year and transfer students. NSO provides a valuable opportunity for your student to become familiar with campus, connect with peers and staff, and gain insights into college life, ensuring a successful start.
Each student is allowed to register up to two family members or supporters to attend NSO with them. There is no cost for family members to attend, including food for all sessions and materials. You are responsible for the overnight accommodations and travel accommodations for family members and supporters.
