Orientation
WELCOME TO Northwest!
Orientation is a unique event where we welcome our newest members to the Ranger family. It is one of the first important steps on your journey to success. At Orientation, you will participate in informational sessions about academic pathways, student services and resources, student activities and events, school policies and rules. You will also have the opportunity to participate in academic advising as you schedule your classes for this fall.
WHAT TO EXPECT
The orientation session is intended for newly admitted students who are starting classes in the fall semester. Depending on which campus you will be attending for orientation, below is a link with an agenda and parking information.
Parents and guardians are welcome, but not required, to attend orientation. Parents will be encouraged to stay in the parent orientation due to limited seating in the student sessions.
