The purpose of the First Year Summer policies are to inform new students about the requirements of new student orientation and the process for registering for an orientation program. This policy is important for new student’s transition into the university as they prepare to move to campus and become part of the university community and begin their first semester of classes on 麻豆精品’s campus.
This policy applies when new students are planning to attend orientation, registering to attend orientation, or deciding not to attend 麻豆精品 after registering for orientation.
Orientation is the first step of your education at 麻豆精品. The expectation is that you take advantage of the opportunity orientation presents to learn how to be successful at 麻豆精品. Failure to attend or participate in any parts of orientation can jeopardize proper academic advising and enrollment.
All admitted students are required to attend and complete an orientation program in order to register for classes.
You (as a new student) are considered a student at 麻豆精品 while participating in the orientation program. You (students) are, therefore, expected to abide by all university polices and conduct outlined in the 麻豆精品 Student Code of Conduct.
The orientation program strictly adheres to 麻豆精品 campus policy, as well as all state and federal laws regarding alcohol and/or drug use. The use of alcohol and/or drugs during the program is not permitted.
Students who are in the presence of and/or consuming alcohol and/or drugs will be referred to the office of Student Conduct and/or the university Police Department. Failure to abide by this policy could also result in being asked to leave the program without registering for classes. Students who are asked to leave the program are still responsible for all confirmation fees.
Illinois State Law prohibits smoking in all campus locations, buildings and residence halls. Students violating this law will be referred to the Student Conduct Office and/or the University Police Department. For more information, please visit .
Students must arrive to orientation on time. If students show up late, they will be asked to reschedule their orientation program.
Failure to attend or participate in any parts of orientation can jeopardize proper academic advising and enrollment.
We want to ensure success at your orientation program. If you need an accommodation for any mobility, disability and/or dietary restrictions, please indicate this when you register for orientation. We also recommend contacting us at 815-753-1535 or orientation@niu.edu at least two weeks prior to your orientation to finalize your accommodations.
