You were accepted for the Spring 2016 semester! We want to celebrate with you and start your career at UMBC off right!
There is still a lot to do before the Spring though! Let’s get a quick run down of Winter Orientation and what you have to do.
- Sign up for Winter Orientation! You can do so by clicking this link and clicking on “Register for Winter Orientation.” Give us a call if you are having issues.
- Get familiar with campus! We have our wonderful Orientation Peer Advisors (OPAs) who will guide you through the transition to campus and life as a UMBC student.
- Sign up for classes! You will have a one on one advising appointment during your orientation day. Together, the two of you will collaboratively build your class schedule and set you on the path to success.
- Make some new friends. Everyone is coming to a new school, adjusting to a new campus, and it’s a major life change. You may just make a new best friend so make sure to introduce yourself to a lot of people!
- Rep the Retrievers! All students who attend Orientation receive a UMBC Fight Song T-shirt. If you want any other UMBC gear be sure to visit the bookstore!
That’s all for now! We can’t wait to see you at Orientation!
