New and Transfer Student Orientation Program

Orientation programs at Nevada State (NS) consist of resourceful information for both new and transfer students to help ensure a smooth transition.

NEW STUDENT ORIENTATION

In an effort to enhance the experience of all incoming students at NS, New Student Orientation (NSO) provides valuable information and resources designed to develop a student’s academic abilities and encourage the pursuit of their personal goals. The NSO program builds a bridge between a student’s prior learning and their academic pathway at NS.

NSO is required for all first-year university students and is held prior to the start of their first semester. The program has been designed to introduce new students to the NS campus, their academic program requirements, financial aid, and academic success resources. After student are admitted to Nevada State, they will receive an email with next steps, including instructions on how to register for NSO.

TRANSFER ORIENTATION

In order to meet the needs of transfer students, Nevada State provides an online guide that outlines campus resources and success tips for transfer students. It is also required that each transfer student meet with an academic advisor prior to the start of their first semester. For a list of meeting and appointment options, please contact the Academic Advising Center (702) 992-2160, following your admission to NS.
