​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​New Student Orientation

International student orientation

This mandatory orientation includes campus activities, class registration, testing, and important immigration information.


Orientation is also a great time for you to become acclimated to campus, explore the city of Findlay, and establish friendships. 


Remember to bring your original ​documents for verification at check-in! Failure to do so will result in delayed registration. Go ahead, pack them right away!


Students not supplying a TOEFL or IELTS and whose language requirement has not been waived are required to take the Accuplacer test during orientation. Your test score will indicate how many semesters of the IELP (if any) will be required before entering your program of study.​
