Winter Quarter 2010
New Student Online Orientations
To help you adjust to student life at Northwestern University, the Student Services Department of the School of Continuing Studies has developed Online Web-Ex Orientation Sessions for all new students.
Each orientation session will be an interactive web conference intended to familiarize you with basic information (WildCard Student IDs, NetIDs and university e-mail, listservs, libraries, registration, parking, and related topics) to make the first weeks on campus more comfortable. The session also offers you the opportunity to ask questions of SCS representatives.
Review the schedule for Online Orientation Sessions listed below; then select the one that is appropriate for you. Reply for the session that applies to your student status or program online by accessing the appropriate link.
