New Student Orientation

Orientation & Educational Planning

Students who participate in college orientation programs are better prepared academically to start and are more successful in college. During the orientation session, you will gain comprehensive information and insight into how our system works, such as:

  • Learning how to schedule an educational planning appointment with a counselor 
  • Learning how to apply for financial aid
  • Understanding Delta College’s course registration process
  • Obtaining knowledge regarding general campus resources

These are just a few of the items you will learn during orientation. Welcome to the Mustang family!
