Transfer and Non-Traditional Orientation

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Transfer/Non-Traditional Orientation? 

The Transfer and Non-Traditional Student Orientation is designed for students who are transferring from another institution, students who may have taken some time off after graduating high school before enrolling, or for adult learners. This orientation will only last a couple of hours and is designed to teach you about 番茄社区 University and the resources we offer, while we also help you finish up anything off your admission’s checklist since you’re on campus. Our goal is to have you leave fully prepared for the upcoming semester!
