Introducing New Student & Transfer Programs
Congratulations on your acceptance to the University of Washington! Check out the different options for Advising & Orientation.
Orientation
New Student and Transfer Programs creates space for students to engage, learn, and thrive at the UW.
Engage
To begin your first year at the University of Washington, you will need to attend an Advising & Orientation (A&O) session. A&O is required of all new undergraduate students and it is where you will be introduced to academics, student life, and extracurricular opportunities.
Orientation for New Admits
New Student and Transfer Programs offers several student positions. Through these roles, students support new Huskies while developing leadership skills to be successful at UW and beyond.
