There are probably some unique and innovative orientation programs out there and it would be interesting to hear about them. From the posts so far, I think it’s safe to generalize that smaller private LAC’s and universities have more nurturing and lengthy orientation programs. UC Berkeley offers a one day orientation for new students and parents. Hand holding? Sink or swim? Depends on who you are and what you want. I’m glad there are choices.
