Student Orientation
Student Orientation consists of two parts: Academic Orientation (mandatory) and Social Orientation (optional, but highly recommended).
Academic Orientation is a MUST for new students. You are
introduced, most importantly, to your academic advisor and your
student peer advisors - your key to academic success at York
University.
Students who do well at university, in life, and in their careers
get involved. There are hundreds of ways of getting involved through
your College and at York in general. We make the introductions at
Academic Orientation.
At
Academic Orientation, you meet York's leaders - the President, the
Dean, the Master, departmental Chairs, and Program Directors. We
introduce you to the terrific resources here that can help you
financially, emotionally, and academically.
Academic Orientaiton is on Thursday, September 3rd from 8:30 am - 3:30 pm
in Founders College Room 152 (Founders Assembly Hall)
