It is very important that you attend the earliest orientation possible! Orientation is the time when you schedule your classes. Earlier in the summer, there is a better choice of class times and class availability because more class seats are available. So remember attend orientation early!

Freshman, Transfer and Adult Undergraduate Orientation Programs
We have developed different orientation programs to meet the unique needs of UNO's diverse student body.

If you are a first-time college student or you are transferring from another college/university with less than 12 credit hours of college coursework, you are required to attend the Freshman Orientation Program.

If you have at least 12 non-remedial/non-developmental hours of college coursework you should attend the Transfer Orientation Program.

If you are an adult learner (25 and over) and this is your first-time attending college, we now have an Adult Orientation Program in August if you do not want to attend the Freshman or Transfer Program.
