The Office of New Student Programs provides an Orientation program that assists
students in making their entry into the University as smooth as possible. Orientation
offers students the opportunity to talk with an academic advisor, plan a course of study,
register for classes, meet new friends, and obtain assistance as they become familiar with
the University and its resources. These programs, offered prior to each academic term,
serve students admitted to most schools and colleges of the University of Michigan. All
new first-year and transfer students, including transfer students from the University of
Michigan-Dearborn and the University of Michigan-Flint, are required to participate in
Orientation in order to register for classes. Cross-campus transfer students, non-degree
students, and readmitted students are not required to participate, although they are
welcome to do so if they wish.
All first-year students admitted for the fall term are expected to participate in a three-day
Orientation session on campus during the summer. Transfer students admitted to Fall
Term are expected to attend a one-day orientation session during the summer. The Office
of New Student Programs sends complete information about these programs to students
admitted for fall term beginning in April and to students admitted for other terms about
four weeks before the term begins.
The Office of New Student Programs (ONSP) is a central point for new students to
receive information about the University. It is here to serve and answer all questions.
