SIGN UP FOR ORIENTATION:
First-year Students: Our new student orientation program is designed to introduce you to all the academic and student services that will support you and help you maximize your potential while you’re a student at Plymouth State. Students are welcome to sign up for one of our June Orientation Sessions, with an optional (but highly encouraged) overnight option. Students not interested in the overnight option are welcome to attend the second day only, which has most of the informational sessions.
Transfer Students: Transfer Students are welcome to attend our one-day Transfer Orientation in July, which is geared to support the specific transfer student experience. They are not expected to attend June Orientation. However, if Transfer Students would prefer to experience the overnight option, they are welcome to attend one of our June Orientation Sessions instead.
Guests: Students can bring a guest to orientation, such as a parent, guardian, or other trusted adult. A guest does not mean a friend or a significant other. While we recommend a guest attend, it is also not required that you bring a guest. It is up to you and what works best for your family.
