Orientation is required for all new UCF students. UCF’s Orientation experience provides information for all incoming students to be successful, both inside and outside of the classroom. We are excited for you to learn more about UCF and prepare for your time as a Knight!
During Orientation, students will meet with their academic college and register for courses. Spring admits must attend Orientation prior to the start of Spring classes.
Sessions are filled on a first-come, first-served basis including the separate but simultaneous Family & Guest Orientation program on each date.
When making an Orientation reservation, students will only be able to choose from dates available to their student type.

Students who attend the January 2nd FTIC Orientation will not meet with their academic college during Orientation, but will instead receive communication and be required to complete academic coaching prior to attending Orientation in-person. Additional instructions will be communicated with students who are eligible to attend this event.
No overnight housing available for any Spring Admit Orientation. Students, families and their guests attending these events are encouraged to find their own overnight accommodations.
