New Student Orientation

Albany State University’s New Student Orientation program is designed to make the transition to the University an easy and pleasant experience for our students. It is a mandatory step for all first-time-freshman and first-year transfer students with less than 30 credit hours. The newly admitted students will learn about academic programs, institutional services, student life, and campus resources. Students are also able to meet with academic advisors, success coaches, faculty and administrators to confer before registering for classes. Incoming freshmen must complete a pre-orientation module program in addition to on-site new student orientation.
