Creating memorable transition experiences
The Office of New Student Orientation provides collaborative programming that facilitates the transition, engagement and retention of new undergraduate students and their families to the intellectual, cultural and social environment of the University of South Carolina. Over the past year, we served over 8,500 incoming students and 7,000 families and supporters. For many students, Orientation is their first time on-campus and in Columbia. With your collaboration, we aim to create memorable transition experiences, introducing students to both their new home and it’s surrounding city.
Local Business and Non-Profit Organization Partnerships
It is the goal of our office to not only introduce student's to their campus community, but the greater community of Columbia as well! Learn more about the opportunities we have for local businesses and non-profit organizations to be a part of New Student Orientation.
