New Student & Parent Programs congratulates you on your acceptance to California State University, Fullerton! We know you have a wonderful experience ahead of you. That said, we know the transition into college life can be both exciting and challenging. By attending orientation, we can help you make the right choices as you begin your journey toward academic success!
Please take the time now to read through the information available through this website BEFORE signing up for an orientation session date. This will help prevent you from signing up for the wrong session.
Orientation is a great opportunity for you to meet fellow new students and make valuable connections with current Cal State Fullerton students, faculty and staff. New students who make these connections and create these friendships tend to be more successful in their transition to college. In fact, students who attend orientation are more likely to be satisfied with their college experience, achieve better grades and graduate!

Applicants admitted after April 15, 2013 have two weeks from the date of admission, printed on the admit letter, to accept their admission offer.
