New Student Orientation

Your first week can be stressful, so we've created events and activities to help you feel at home and confident about your new surroundings!

Online Orientation

Note: All returning students who are not beginning a new program should follow their schedules and attend classes as usual.

  • This required online orientation provides you with information about services & support on campus, campus housing information, and RESPECT training. All Olds College of Agriculture & Technology students must complete this orientation before their program starts. It doesn’t take long and will provide you with a lot of very helpful information! 

  • Start the International Student Orientation Course before your arrival in Canada, then some modules will be completed after your arrival. If you have any questions, contact International Services.

First Week: What to Do & What to Know 

  • Participate in Welcome Week activities. You can add them to your calendar here!

  • Ensure your tuition and fees are paid by the deadline in the fee schedule.
