Transfer and Returning New Student Orientation and Registration (NSO)

Enrolling in classes and participating in orientation are important steps to beginning your student experience at Northwest. There are several options to fit your needs, including both on-campus and virtual content. Either way, you will be able to work with an advisor to enroll and learn about campus resources and services to set you up for a successful start.

On-campus Orientation Come to campus and get more familiar with resources and services, meet with an academic advisor and enroll in classes.

Online Orientation consists of a text and video-based orientation to orient you to campus services and resources. You will communicate with an academic advisor by email, phone or zoom to discuss and enroll in classes.
