Orientation Reservations

New students enrolling in Fall 2013 will attend Orientation in June or July. Orientation sessions are based on the student's major. Reservations are processed online through your MySacState account.  Students who do not attend Orientation will not be permitted to enroll this Fall. For details on the next enrollment period, contact admissions at (916) 278-7766.

Registration for Orientation begins on April 2, 2013. Follow the directions below:

Step One: Accept Admissions

Step Two: Log into MySacState

Step Three: Click STUDENT CENTER in the center of the page.

Step Four: Click New Student Orientation on the lower left side of the page and follow the directions.

Orientation sessions are based on students’ major. If a student’s major of interest has changed since he or she applied, the student should select an orientation date based on his or her new major of interest. If a student needs to officially change your major, he or she can discuss that with an advisor during major advising.

Step Four: Confirm your reservation, and make note of how to pay parking permit and orientation fee (see below). Students will receive an email confirmation of their reservation.
