Prospective Students

Orientations for Fall 2009

All new freshmen and transfer students participate in orientation sessions. They're a great way to get started at UC San Diego.

Each of UCSD's six colleges hosts a unique orientation program.

Orientation sessions help you:

  • Understand your college and course requirements
  • Meet other new students
  • Learn about important campus resources

Note: You will not enroll during orientation. Enrollment occurs online in a separate process.

To sign up for an orientation session:

  • You'll need your PID (Personal IDentification number) and PAC (Personal Access Code).
  • Log in at the New Student Gateway.

Parents can also sign up for orientation sessions:

  • They'll need your PID (Personal IDentification number) and birthdate.
  • Parents log in at the New Parent Connection.
