Spring New Student Orientation
Spring New Student Orientation offers students who start at UND in the spring semester a chance to get information about classes, faculty and campus, and meet other new students. It's designed to help both incoming freshmen and transfer students make a successful transition to University life.
Spring New Student Orientation 2012 is scheduled for Monday, January 9th. Students admitted for the spring semester should make plans to attend this exciting event.

Transfer Student Getting Started
Transfer students find this program to be extremely helpful in the process of seamlessly transitioning to UND. Transfer Student Getting Started is held on a Saturday in late March or early April.
You'll register for classes early, meet with your academic advisor, learn about services, complete your placement exams and become familiar with campus. Only admitted students are allowed to participate in the Transfer Student Getting Started program, so apply early for admission. We also encourage you to participate in the Welcome Weekend before classes start in August.
If you are unable to attend the Transfer getting Started Program in person, there is an online orientation to help you smoothly transition to UND. You may view this online orientation at any time and review it as needed.
