Students must have completed 30 credits of college level coursework since graduating high school.
All students must complete a self-directed virtual orientation at a cost of $35. In addition, students may opt into a live virtual or in-person orientation at no extra cost. Students must still complete the self-directed virtual orientation course whether they join in-person or through the live-virtual session.
The self-directed virtual orientation will take around 2 hours to complete. The live virtual orientation and in-person sessions are around 4 hours long.
No, it is optional. Only the self-directed virtual orientation is mandatory.
Students can access the self-directed virtual orientation at https://canvas.fau.edu one hour after making payment. Students must achieve a score of 100% on all quizzes to satisfy the orientation requirement.
No, academic advising is separate from orientation. Students should schedule an appointment with a College based academic advisor through Starfish. Full instructions are given in the advising module in the Owldone portal https://owldone.fau.edu
This depends on whether a student has already met with an academic advisor for their new student advising appointments.
For a fee of $50, guests will receive access to their own self-directed virtual orientation, and will receive their own login to the live virtual orientation, which includes a presentation from Office of Family Engagement staff.
