There is no charge for this orientation, but you must register online in advance.

Planning Your Arrival: You can enter the U.S. up to 30 days prior to the start date on your I-20. (Transfer students who are in the U.S. are considered "continuing" students and are not subject to this 30-day period). The start date on your I-20 is the first day of classes.
