All freshman students who have been accepted to CSUS will automatically be mailed information. Orientation provides the most complete academic advising and an outstanding way to get familiar with the campus and meet other new students like yourself. Before you register for classes, you will need to be advised on courses to enroll.
Orientation is the only advisement available to new incoming students.
During orientation, students will register for their classes. It is important that you take the EPT and ELM as soon as possible in order to have the results for your advising session. During the Parents' Welcome Program, the students and parents will attend some sessions together and some apart. You can view both the Freshman Student Schedule and the Freshman Parent Schedule online. Your parents will not be around during the evening activity, the overnight in the residence halls, or the second day of your orientation.
