Transfer Students: ��ӥ��ֱ��, Greater Cincinnati Region

We are proud that you have chosen to become a member of our growing ��ӥ��ֱ�� family! In order to assist you with your transition to ��ӥ��ֱ��, all new incoming students are required to participate in an orientation experience. However, the orientation experience you participate in depends on how many hours you are transferring to ��ӥ��ֱ��. Our programs are designed to assist you with understanding our university culture, your academic program, the transfer credit articulation process, and will familiarize you with navigating our campus. Below you'll find more detailed information on the orientation requirements.

Military & Veterans have the option to attend a military and veteran-specific track that is embedded in each of the three programs listed below. The military and veteran track includes such information as on-campus veteran resources, information about your military and veteran benefits, how they apply to your account, and more.

Online Student Orientation

All students accepted into an online program will need to complete an online orientation. You will need your ��ӥ��ֱ�� user ID (from your letter of acceptance) and password to set up an account at orientation.nku.edu. For questions about the online student orientation, please email orientation@nku.edu.
