Orientation

Our office is currently working remotely. Please email us at orientation-testing@iup.edu for assistance.

Through our interactive virtual orientation, you will meet other incoming students, as well as your student success leaders (SSLs). You will also hear about the offices on campus where you can get help with anything you encounter. You’ll also learn about the experience transitioning to college living and learning.

1. Register for Orientation. We will be opening the Transfer Registration process in mid-October and Freshmen Registration in early November. Visit MyIUP to sign up for your program. An instructional video is also located there to assist with this process.
2. Access the HAWKS 100-Getting Ready course or Transfer Pre-Orientation course (based on your admission category) to complete some pre-program tasks.
3. Complete Placement Testing.
4. Continue to check your IUP email account.  Incoming students will receive additional program details through their IUP email account. This is the official method of communication for the university. Please be sure to check your account frequently to receive information about your orientation program and other announcements through the summer months.
5. After participating in your program, complete the HAWKS 101 courses.

For an overview of Orientation activities, please see the Orientation Schedule page.

Parent and Family Orientation

Because family support is critical to your student’s success, we would like to encourage you to participate with them during their online orientation experience.

Information sessions for parents and family members will be available through Zoom in June and July. Check your email in early June for additional information and links to these sessions.
