January Orientation is for both new first-year students and transfer students. The program provides you with an opportunity to learn the requirements of your academic unit, meet with a faculty advisor to plan/review your courses, register or adjust your course schedule and become familiar with campus life. The program activities are designed to prepare you to begin classes on Tuesday, January 19, 2010.
If you have paid your acceptance fee to the Admissions Office and you are a new first-year student, a transfer student from another institution, or a transfer from UVM's Continuing Education, you will find the Orientation program an important step in starting your academic career at the University of Vermont.
