2021 Orientation Experience

Orientation is the first step designed to assist you in making a comfortable transition to life at UMSL. Orientation is a requirement for all newly, admitted, degree-seeking, undergraduate students. It must be completed prior to your first day of classes. There are multiple Orientation types based on your admit type, and specific formats to relay information that fits your needs.

Orientation Leaders will serve as hosts and share their experiences with new students. Administrators and faculty will also be present throughout the day outlining expectations, resources, helping you build your student success network, and provide guidance about your educational experience.
