Orientation for Freshmen
Phase I (Summer) Orientation
These fifteen one-day sessions held in June introduce you to campus and allow you to register for classes. Orientation will provide you with an opportunity to find out more about your academic program, meet with an adviser and register for first semester classes. You will learn about university resources and campus life, including housing, dining services, student organizations, etc.
During orientation for freshmen, there is a separate program for parents and guests. Parents and guests will have an opportunity to interact with fellow parents, current students and university staff.
By the end of Orientation we hope you will feel connected and eager to start classes at UW-Eau Claire.
