BRCC New Student Orientation

Only New Students are required to attend New Student Orientation. A new student is one:

• Who has been accepted by BRCC for the first time and never attended college before;
• Or is returning after a significant absence.

If you are not a new student or you have attended an orientation session, you may report to the testing center during operating hours for your testing needs.

New Student Orientation (NSO) is a compressed informational group session, limited to 45 students, whereupon students will: (1) receive information and resources needed for academic and personal success; (2) take the COMPASS Placement Assessment which determines course placement; (3) participate in a small group advising session presented by an academic advisor; and (4) review degree options and develop first semester schedule.

**New Student Orientation will begin in the Testing Center located in the Bienvenue Student Center.
Please arrive 30 minutes prior to the start of Orientation. Morning sessions start at 8:00 A.M. The session typically ends at mid-day. The Afternoon session starts at 1:00 P.M. Please expect to spend the entire afternoon to complete New Student Orientation process. **

Upcoming Sessions: You can only register for New Student Orientation with available dates. If you are unable to choose from available dates, please return at a later time when additional dates are made available.
