New Student Orientations

Several orientations are held throughout the year to assist students in their transition to ECU and the College of Nursing. Incoming freshmen and transfer students attend orientation during the summer or prior to the start of their first semester. The College of Nursing holds orientations at the beginning of fall and spring semester for students admitted to the pre-licensure BSN, RN to BSN and graduate programs.

Students will receive email communication with time, location and other information about their scheduled orientation. For more information, find the appropriate contact below.

First-year orientation is organized through ECU’s Office of Student Transitions. Visit their First-Year Programs page for more information.

Transfer Students

Newly-admitted ECU transfer students pursuing their first undergraduate degree will receive information about the ECU Online Transfer Orientation from the Office of Student Transitions.
