New Students

As you prepare for your first year at Michigan Tech, we know that you have plenty of questions. This year Michigan Tech's Orientation Program will look different from our past Orientation programs.  

In the past Michigan Tech's Orientation consisted of a week long program. Starting in this summer, 2025, Michigan Tech will have Session 1 and Session 2. 

Session 1 will be held in the summer with four two day orientations to choose from.
The dates are:

  • June 22-23
  • June 26-27
  • July 13-14
  • July 17-18

Students will choose which one of these sessions they would like to attend.

Session 2 will be held in the fall from August 18-23, 2025.

The Undergraduate Orientation page has further information.

Get ready for Orientation by reviewing the following pages. You’ll find information about course registration, campus living, and more—everything you need to be prepared for your arrival.

Student-Athletes

Student-athletes participating on a fall athletics team will be automatically enrolled to attend the Student-Athlete Orientation which will be held on Thursday, August 21, 2025 and expected to attend the required programming during Orientation Week.  

Student-athletes participating in a spring sport will attend the entire Orientation Week.
