Welcome to Transfer Orientation
Register for Winter Transfer Highlander Orientation by Nov. 19, 2021. (Orientation is Dec. 3, 2021.)
Transfer Orientation will be virtual this year! Transfer Orientation is a mandatory one-day program for new UCR transfer students. You will learn about what resources are available for your academic and personal success, register for classes* along with being able to network with faculty, staff, and other UCR transfer students.
For questions about accessibility or to request accommodation, please contact Orientation at (951) 827-2789 or orientation@ucr.edu. Requests should be made at least two weeks prior to the event so the university has sufficient time to arrange reasonable accommodations.
