2013 Orientation Session Dates

Orientation dates will vary depending on your college or school, whether you are a first-year or transfer student, and whether you are a Colorado resident or an out-of-state student.

This document lists all session dates including those no longer available because they are at capacity.  Your student will only see the dates still available to them when they login to the Orientation Reservation Syste

All new undergraduate students are required to attend all meetings during orientation.

Students who fail to meet their orientation obligations or miss required programming may end up in late registration or lose their registration eligibility. More »

Students are also expected to abide by the Student Code of Conduct. Students violating this code risk sanctions, including potential revocation of their admission.
