Schedule at a Glance
REGISTER FOR CLASSES
Students will have the opportunity to meet with our advisors, learn about U91ɬÂþ’s course selection process, and select fall semester classes. Students will leave orientation with their completed fall-semester course schedules in hand.
MEET FIRST-YEAR STUDENTS
Throughout the day, students will get to connect with other first-year students. Thanks to our partnership with The Browne Center, students will have plenty of opportunities to learn more about their peers and begin forming friendships that can be built upon in the fall.
LEARN ABOUT CAMPUS RESOURCES
At New Student Orientation, students will have the opportunity to learn more about U91ɬÂþ Manchester’s campus resources and supports. Students will connect with departments such as the Library, Career and Professional Success, and the Office of Student and Community Engagement, as well as with some of our resources, including the Mental Health Center of Greater Manchester and the SHARPP Center.
Get Ready for Class
During orientation, you'll have the opportunity to meet with staff and faculty who will share important information to help you get prepared for course selection.
We encourage you to review the academic guide for your program of study, which provides information on courses you may need to take, as well as placement tests required for some areas of study.
