How to Sign Up for Orientation
Begin Your Orientation Experience
If you are a first-year or transfer student beginning classes at Clemson in Summer or Fall 2025, you can sign up for New Student Orientation in your Clemson admissions portal beginning on April 15, 2025.
There are two steps to the sign-up process:
- Complete a simple sign-up form in your Clemson admissions portal.
- Pay your nonrefundable student transition and support fee.
Complete the Sign-Up Form
Beginning on April 15, 2025, you can start your Orientation journey by completing the sign-up form.
Completing this form will allow you to begin the other steps in the Orientation process, including:
- Accessing your Virtual Orientation modules
- Completing your pre-advising form
- Scheduling your advising appointment
- Selecting a course registration day and time
- Signing up for Ready, Set, Roar! (optional in-person experience)
We encourage you to sign up for Orientation early so that you have plenty of time to complete the steps above.
Pay Your Student Transition and Support Fee
After signing up for Orientation, you will be directed to pay the nonrefundable student transition and support fee.
The student transition and support fee supports several programs and services outside of the Orientation program that students use throughout their time at Clemson. In addition to Orientation, the fee supports Welcome Week, transition and engagement programs, academic advising, retention, academic success, campus connection initiatives, transfer student services, and family programs, including Parent and Family Orientation. The fee is nonrefundable.
