| ORIENTATION
- TRANSFER
You've been there and done that. Maybe so, but now you'll be a new student
at Coastal Carolina University and some things are done a little differently
on our campus. But don't worry; we're not going to hassle you with a lot
of information you probably already have. We want you to be able to come
to campus, take care of business, and make the connections you need to have
a smooth transition to life at Coastal. It all happens at Orientation.
Because transfer students already have a lot of college experience, transfers
attend one-day orientation sessions. There are three sessions just for
transfer students. All sessions begin at 9:00 a.m. and end at approximately
4:00 p.m.
During your day at Orientation, you will have the opportunity to do the
following:
- Plan your first semester and register for classes
- Learn about life on campus from CCU students
- Receive information about transfer credits, financial aid, and bill
payment
- Learn how to start preparing for a successful career after graduation
- Have your photo taken for your University ID card and obtain your
parking permit
