During Summer Orientation your Fall 2013 schedule will be finalized with a specially-trained academic advisor. (After June 14th, a tentative schedule will be available for you to preview on Your Connection.) In addition, you will become familiar with the campus, available services, and learning tools to help you succeed in your academic career at SUNY Fredonia. You will also learn about your general education requirements, about exploring for a major if you are looking for one, and about the requirements for your major, if you have already chosen one. Program registration for transfer students will take place from 8:00 – 8:30 a.m. on Thursday June 20th. Following registration and refreshments, you will hear remarks from our President and be introduced to our Orientation Staff. After a brief review of the day’s schedule, you will participate in an academic session that will include a discussion of general education and your academic experience. You will also have a chance to experience some learning tools that will assist you over the course of your academic career. After a buffet lunch, you will be a part of a small group participating in a series of informational workshops designed to assist you with planning for the fall semester as well as the years ahead. During this time, you will finalize your class schedule for the Fall 2013 Semester. The transfer orientation fee is $65.00, which includes the program, orientation materials and lunch. There is no Parent Orientation Program scheduled for the transfer session. Please click here to sign into Your Connection. Once you have logged in, please click on Student Service, Financial Aid, Residence Life. Scroll down to the bottom and select Summer Orientation. Each session is limited to a specific number of students to ensure personal attention for each student and each session is filled on a first-come, first-served basis. Confirmation of your Reservation Once you have registered and paid for your orientation session, you will be directed to a Confirmation Page. If for unavoidable reasons it becomes necessary to cancel or change your reservation in any way, you can make changes by clicking the Make a Change link on the Confirmation Page. If you are unable to make changes once you click the link, call (716) 673-3276 for assistance. Please be aware that it is the responsibility of the student to make his or her own travel arrangements to Fredonia through airlines, bus companies, and/or travel agencies. Please print a copy of the confirmation page and bring it with you to your orientation session. Due to the structured nature of this program, this program is restricted to Transfer Students Only. Please do not bring guests (parents, friends, etc.) to the program. Required Admission/Housing Deposit Orientation reservations cannot be processed until your Admissions/Housing Deposit ($100; or $50 for those who do not require on-campus housing in the fall) is on file with the Office of Student Accounts. The Admission/Housing Deposit should be mailed directly to the Office of Student Accounts (envelope was provided with your Admissions acceptance packet), and not included with the orientation fee. This Admission/Housing Deposit activates you on the University’s computer database and allows you to view your tentative schedule and finalize your Fall 2013 class selection at Orientation.
