D2 will be attending a small private university in the fall. She submitted her deposit, and was able to register for their June orientation program. The program is 2 days, and the students stay in the dorms for 1 night, and are given meals. Part of the program is a community service project in the local community. I was surprised when she told me that she had to pay a $200 fee for the orientation. Is this standard? D1 had her orientation right before classes started, and she stayed in her own dorm room, so Ii am not familiar with the early orientation programs.
