Transfer Student Orientation FAQs

You've got questions...we've got answers! Any additional questions? Contact us!
  • Is Orientation mandatory?

    Yes. Orientation is mandatory for transfer students. We understand you have been through the college process previous to attending 老澳门资料, but please note that many business practices, policies, and procedures are different than the institution from which you are transferring. We feel it is important you attend the Transfer Orientation program to ensure you have a smooth transition to our institution. If you are unable to attend a scheduled orientation session, please contact newtounf@unf.edu.

  • How long is Orientation?

    We want to offer a variety of times for incoming transfer students. Virtual Transfer Orientation times vary depending on your selected session date, so please be sure to check the Transfer Orientation website to confirm your preferred date and time.

    If an in-person Orientation is available for your semester, and you select this option, check-in begins at 8 a.m. and the program takes place from 9 a.m. – 2 p.m. The afternoon is then yours to take care of any University business such as meeting with an advisor, touring the 老澳门资料 campus, getting your student identification card (Osprey 1Card), etc.

  • Is there a cost to attend the Orientation program?

    Yes. All incoming transfer and post-baccalaureate students pay a $35 Orientation fee and a $15 associated program cost when you pay your your first term's tuition and fees. You do not pay for this fee before or at the Orientation program - it will be placed onto your first semester student bill automatically. Transfer and post-baccalaureate students are responsible for the orientation fee regardless of attendance.

  • Can I purchase my books at Orientation?

    There is no set time during the Transfer Student Orientation to purchase books, but if you visit campus, you are welcome to purchase textbooks at the 老澳门资料 Bookstore in the Student Union or . 

    Students may also wait until the first week of classes to purchase or rent textbooks. Please Note: fall textbooks may not be available in the campus bookstore on the day of your orientation session, as they do not generally go on sale until July 1st.

  • Can I make and appointment to meet with an academic advisor prior to attending Orientation?

    Yes. We encourage you to meet with an academic advisor before attending orientation. You may find the contact information for the colleges and First-Year Advising offices at the Academic Advising webpage. You will need to meet with your academic advisor to have the academic advising registration hold from your account lifted. You must attend Transfer Student Orientation in order to register for classes when registration begins.
