About Us

New Student Programs is comprised of two teams: Orientation and First Year Experience. We work together to support new students in their transition to UC Davis, though Orientation works with students before their first quarter, and First Year Experience works with students during their first year. We also both offer programming for parents and supporters of new Aggies!
