At Niagara University, orientation occurs at the start of the Spring (January) and Fall (August) terms. Orientation typically takes place the week before classes begin, and provides students with an opportunity to connect with their peers, familiarize themselves with academic program details, and learn about the support services offered within our community!
Registration for the Fall 2024 Pre-orientation sessions and the official Orientation week will commence on May 1st. Incoming students are strongly encouraged to monitor their Niagara email accounts for more information.
Pre-orientation programming serves as a transitional phase for new students, offering essential guidance and resources before the official orientation week. Pre-orientation programming will be held virtually, unless otherwise stated.
