Our Orientation Programs are designed to familiarize new students with the organization, services, and facilities at the College, as well as providing students with an overview of Canvas, the student portal, and advising services as well as IT support with student emails. The emphasis of the program is an introduction to life at the College. The program provides the student with an opportunity to meet members of the administration, staff, and fellow students. Orientation topics include the General Education curriculum, program requirements and scheduling, Student Services, Student Life and Student Rights and Responsibilities.
