freshman orientation
New student welcome
Freshman orientation is an organized introduction to college or high school for incoming students, typically held before classes begin.
It covers campus resources, academic expectations, and social activities meant to ease the transition: I met my roommate at freshman orientation.
The event ranges from a single day to a full week depending on the institution.
