Students enrolling in the spring attend a one-day orientation the<br />

week prior to the start of classes in January.<br />

Students who met specific criteria were invited to attend a newly<br />

revised Post Secondary Enrollment Option (PSEO) orientation called,<br />

“Just for You” on April 1, <strong>2010</strong>. Criteria includes:<br />

• Enrolled full-time (13 credits, fall <strong>and</strong> spring) as a PSEO student<br />

during the 2009-<strong>2010</strong> academic year who had:<br />

• Applied <strong>and</strong> accepted to be a degree seeking in fall of <strong>2010</strong><br />

• Paid the confirmation fee<br />

The PSEO students had the option to complete the three-hour<br />

orientation in conjunction with an advising appointment. With four<br />

colleges participating, we had 48 students participate <strong>and</strong> 38 parents.<br />

All confirmed freshman students pay $175 confirmation fee.<br />

What students said….<br />

“<strong>Orientation</strong> was very helpful to me. The information<br />

presented cleared up so many questions that I had <strong>and</strong><br />

everyone was extremely nice <strong>and</strong> knowledgeable. I liked<br />

being surrounded by people who love their jobs <strong>and</strong><br />

know what they’re talking about. I definitely encourage<br />

continuing to present information from so many different<br />

areas because that not only brings to attention things that<br />

I didn’t think of, <strong>and</strong> also helped me to feel more confident<br />

<strong>and</strong> prepared for my upcoming college experience!”<br />
