Please note, that guest and special students do not need to attend orientation. Orientation is only required for first-time, full time students and Transfer students who have less than 60 credit hours transferring in.
You only have to attend either a zoom or in-person orientation, not both.
Before your virtual orientation date, your Academic Advisor will contact you to set up an advising appointment. During this appointment, your Advisor will help you create your Fall course schedule and give you instructions on how to register for your courses on your own. Please make sure you have set-up your UNO username and password if you haven't already.
Your Privateer orientation will be taking place on zoom from 11am-1pm CST. During this virtual session, you will have another chance to talk with your Advisor, as well as learn about the process of switching or dropping courses, and meet with our UNO Orientation Leaders & New Student Experience staff for a detailed presentation about UNO campus resources.
Will you require any accommodations for a disability (visible or invisible) to have a successful advising experience? Please email nse@uno.edu to let us know.
