New Student Orientation
We hope you are excited to begin your journey as an Aurora University Spartan! After submitting your deposit, the next step is to start your transition to AU by attending new student orientation. During orientation, you will engage in events and opportunities that provide the information needed for a successful transition to AU. There are three main orientation events:
- Spring New Student Orientation for new students starting at AU during spring semester.
- SOAR: Summer Orientation and Registration for incoming freshmen and their families to visit campus, register for classes, hear from different support services on campus, and prepare for fall semester.
- AU: Fuel Your Future, a summer bridge program for incoming students designed to help transition confidently into college life.
- Fall Welcome Week for new freshman students to get acclimated to campus, meet their first-year mentor, and build community with faculty, staff, and fellow students.
- Fall Transfer Orientation and Welcome Week for incoming transfer students to meet faculty and staff, learn about campus resources, and ease the transition to AU.
