Orientation FAQs
General Questions
How do I register for Orientation?
To register for your mandatory College orientation program, go to cor.ucsd.edu.
Are both parts of the Seventh College Orientation Experience required?
Yes, both parts of the Seventh College Orientation Experience are mandatory. If you do not complete one or both parts of the College orientation program, a hold preventing your registration in classes may be placed on your account.
I am having technical difficulties registering for Orientation. What do I do?
Before you can register for Part I of your Seventh College Orientation Experience, you must activate your UCSD Zoom account. To do so, follow the instructions under "Getting Started" on the UC San Diego Zoom webpage.
If you have already activated your Zoom account or are experiencing difficulties registering for Orientation Part II, please email seventhorientation@ucsd.edu.
Can I change my in-person orientation session?
Students can change their registration for Orientation Part II once before Friday, July 25 via the College Orientation Registration website. If you need to change your session after this date or for a second time, email seventhorientation@ucsd.edu. Please note, changes requested after the deadline are not guaranteed.
How can I ensure my in-person orientation session does not conflict with move-in?
Students who have applied for UC San Diego housing and met all requirements will be able to select their move-in day/time in August and should choose a different day than they chose for Orientation Part II.
Parent, Family, & Triton Supporter Questions
Can I (parent/guardian) attend orientation with my student?
No, Seventh College Orientation Part I and Part II are only open to new First-Year and Transfer students.
However, Seventh College is committed to providing parents and families with the tools required to be successful Triton supporters. We will share important resources and reminders for your student via our summer newsletter series, offer an opportunity for you to meet Seventh College staff and student leaders via Zoom, and collaborate with UCSD Parent & Family Programs to host webinars specifically designed for parents and families throughout the summer.
For additional questions or concerns regarding orientation, please contact Seventh College’s Orientation Coordinator at seventhorientation@ucsd.edu.
