New Student Orientation

All first time entering students (any student that is not continuing at UAC or transferring from another college or university) are required to attend New Student Orientation. The Orientation is held on each campus a week before fall and spring semesters begin. We advise students to attend the Orienation at the campus they will be attending the majority of their classes, but if the student’s work schedule does not allow that, they are welcome to attend any other Colt Kicker available.

Students can expect the following at any Orientaiton:

Campus tours
Meeting advisors
Learning how to login to UAC Email, Blackboard, and Campus Connect
Meeting new students
Freebies

Online Orientation

Students who do not attend the Colt Kicker before their first semester at UA Cossatot will be enrolled in an online orientation.
