If you are enrolled in an online program, you are 要求 to complete our 国家取向 for online students. You are not 要求 to attend an on-campus 国家取向, but rather our virtual program tailored just for you. All first-year distance students, and transfer students with 12 or less transfer credits, will be 要求 to attend a synchronous Virtual 取向 with University College. There is no fee for 国家取向 for online students.
