Welcome to Your University!

On behalf of the Orientation staff, welcome to your University! The Coastal Carolina University Orientation program is designed to help you make connections with other new and returning students, register for classes, and learn about the services and activities that will help make your first year a success. There's also a corresponding Orientation program for your parents that will address their concerns about academic requirements, advisement, health and safety, and the many services that are available to students.

* Please note that Orientation is required for all new freshmen and transfer students.

The Freshman Orientation fee is $140 and allows each student to bring up to two guests. The Transfer Orientation fee is $70 and allows each student to bring up to two guests. Orientation fees are non-refundable.
