We are committed to supporting a diverse population of incoming students and their families with their transition into the Portland State community. In order to facilitate student success, Orientation Leaders, the Faculty, and Academic Professionals work together to introduce new students and their families to our academic, cultural, social, and physical environment.
We believe that attending Orientation is important to each student's success and that by spending the time it takes to attend Orientation you will save time and money in the future by ensuring that you are aware of the variety of resources and services available to Portland State students.
