<p>Does it cost money to go to orientation an why do u have to pay in order to go??</p>
<p>IME orientation is part of the cost for the semester and is only offered for admitted students. Or are you asking about a college visit?</p>
<p>Although it is strongly recommended to attend, they are often not free particularly if it includes meal and housing. It is usually not covered by the tuition.</p>
<p>Looks like you need to check with the specifics college by college.</p>
