Nova Southeastern University International Student Orientation is mandatory and provides critical information for students to understand how to maintain a valid immigration status at NSU and within the United States, as well as opportunities to meet other international students and learn from one another.
This program is designed to assist you in making a smooth transition to university life at Nova Southeastern University! Orientation is the foundation of your college experience.
All new undergraduate students at NSU are required to attend ONE (1) orientation.
For the past months, NSU has worked tirelessly to look at every facet of student life and determine how we make fall semester both safe and meaningful. To facilitate these efforts, Orientation is a required event for all first-year, first-time-in-college, and transfer students attending Nova Southeastern University. However, if you have already attended Shark Preview, New Student Orientation is optional. We cannot wait to welcome you to campus to our Shark Family!
