First-year Student Orientation

Freshman Orientation is a two-day program designed to welcome you to the Pacific community.  You will meet faculty, students and administrators who will help you make academic decisions to complete your registration for the fall semester.

When you register, indicate the orientation session you would prefer to attend.  Your preferred orientation session must be one in which your school/college participates.  First year students who are California residents should attend an orientation session in June unless their school/college in not participating.  The August session is reserved for out of state and international students.

 The Orientation fee for freshman students is $200.00 and for their family members it is $170.00, which includes meals, program materials, administrative costs and programs.

Once you register for orientation, a confirmation letter is emailed to you with detailed information about the program.

If you have additional questions, please feel free to contact New Student and Family Programs at (209)946-7619 or email us at orientation@pacific.edu. Students and staff are available to answer your questions or refer you to the proper office to meet your needs.
