As a first-time-to-college student under the age of 24 you must start by completing your placement testing and then sign up for a NOVA email account before you can register for an Orientation session.

During Student Orientation You Will:

• receive interpretation of Placement Test scores
• develop an academic goal
• meet with a first-year advisor
• create your class schedule and register for courses
• learn about payment options and Financial Aid

The earlier you attend a Student Orientation, the more likely you are to get the classes and the class times that you want!

Student Orientations are led by first-year advisors, college teaching faculty and student orientation leaders.
