New Student Orientation - Summer Semester 2012: Step 1

1. Verify your "admitted" status at www.gpc.edu/mystatus before orientation sign up.

2. You can NOT sign up for orientation if you are not "admitted" and/or have not completed academic placement test requirements.

3. Students will need your GPC ID# in order to register for orientation. A valid e-mail address will also be required. If you do not know your GPC ID, please go to www.gpc.edu/getmygpcid/.

4. Orientation lasts approximately 3-4 hours and includes check-in, information sessions, group advisement, and course registration.

5. Orientation sessions typically begin every 30 minutes during scheduled orientation days. Students must be on site 30-45 minutes prior to the start of their session to check-in and received their ticket.

6. Orientation spaces are limited. Students may sign up for one (1) orientation session only. If we find that a student has registered for multiple sessions, we will automatically cancel all registrations except for the first one.

7. Students may attend new student orientation at any GPC campus.

8. Students who arrive late or miss their scheduled orientation will have to sign up for another session (if spaces are available) or attend walk-in, final registration.

9. Due to space constraints, family and children are unable to go through orientation with students.

10. Course payment is expected upon course registration. Please visit www.gpc.edu/finaid for a non-payment purge schedule. Classes will be removed if payment is not submitted in time.

NOTE: If you require special accommodations or unable to attend due to a medical condition, please go to http://advising.gpc.edu/ and contact an Advising, Counseling and Retention Services (ACRS) office. ACRS office phone numbers are at the bottom of this page:
