Enrollment Management coordinates orientation programs for all undergraduate students new to PSU. All newly admitted undergraduate students are required to attend a new student orientation session before registering for courses.

After admission to PSU, each undergraduate student must complete orientation programming before their start term. In-person and online programming is available. To sign up for New Student Orientation, the student must have already submitted their enrollment confirmation along with the tuition deposit of $200 (if required).

Orientation provides students with information about:
• academic requirements of a baccalaureate degree;
• course registration access;
• information about programs and services available to PSU students;
• support in the academic and social transition to the University community.

Viking Days takes place prior to the start of fall term. This is a week of activities, information sessions, open houses, and social events in which new students are invited to attend and encouraged to participate. For further information, visit www.pdx.edu/viking-days.
