UMD Freshman Orientation

Our course registration happens at orientation at UMD, so I was recommended to go to an earlier one, however the Scholars specific orientation is later in June. I attached a screenshot of the schedule. I’m a civil engineering major for reference. Is it worth it to go to an earlier one just for registration, or to go to the one with my LLP?

You should attend the orientation tailored to your Scholars program. If you go to a general orientation, it won’t cover the details of your program. Don’t worry about registration — you won’t be at a disadvantage.

I concur. The Scholars orientation will have information not provided by the general one. You will also be able to get answers to any Scholars specific questions that you may have. If possible, I would recommend that one or both of your parents attend. Back when my D attended they had some parent specific sessions that were useful to us.
