OR Day - May 29+

YOUR VIRTUAL ORIENTATION
MAY 29 or after MAY 29

Alert 1

Don't forget your Pre-Orientation tasks!

Starting May 15, you’ll have access to Arizona Arrival, an interactive online tool that will guide you through everything you need to know as a Wildcat. It must be completed at least 7 days before your virtual orientation – otherwise, you will need to reschedule your session! You can't attend virtual orientation without completing Arizona Arrival.

ORIENTATION WALKTHROUGH

On orientation day, you will: dive into your academic unit, review your class schedule with an advisor, and even have a chance to high-five your Orientation Leader (virtually, of course).

Note: All Zoom meetings will be in Arizona time (currently on Pacific time).
Virtual orientation

01

Open your orientation schedule

Go to CatCloud Calendar and select the "University of Arizona" login option to access your required session(s) for the day.

Note: Eller students, check CatMail for an email called "Preparing for Orientation Day with Eller College" or "Welcome to your Transfer Orientation."

02

MEET YOUR ACADEMIC UNIT

Whether you're meeting with both your Academic Unit and an Advisor -- or just an Advisor -- you will get to discuss your first semester courses as a student within that academic area.

See STEP 1 for Zoom link(s).

03

Departure with an OL

End your orientation day by briefly checking in with an Orientation Leader (OL). Make sure you have everything taken care of and all of your questions answered!
