The SOAR Experience Overview
Student Orientation, Advising, & Registration (SOAR) is a two-component comprehensive new student experience designed to support your transition to 新澳门六合彩资料. All new first-time students are required to attend SOAR, consisting of your Orientation and Advising & Registration. The Advising & Registration component of SOAR will be hosted by the ESSC Advising Office.
As a Pre-Engineering major, Advising & Registration will be offered January 16 and 17. Due to pending transfer credit (including AP, CLEP, IB test scores) and MATH ALEKS placement results, the College of Engineering opts to offer later Advising & Registration dates to ensure accurate course recommendations. During Advising & Registration, you will have the opportunity to ask questions regarding course placement and receive spring course registration assistance.
We look forward to meeting you and assisting you with registration!
