Honors Orientation

Honors Orientation

Honors Orientation brings together everything you’ve learned so far about joining the Gamecock and Honors communities this fall. At Honors Orientation, you will hear from upper-level Honors students, find out more about the Honors experience and learn how to get involved within the Honors community. This is also an opportunity to ask questions after completing Honors advising and taking part in USC’s New Student Orientation.

Registration for New Student Orientation will open on March 19^th at noon. Honors students will attend one of nine pre-selected New Student Orientation sessions, which will offer a unique and tailored Honors experience with information for students and family. Please plan to register for and attend one of the following sessions:

June 11 – 12
June 16 – 17
June 25 – 26
July 2 – 3
July 9 - 10
July 14 – 15
July 23 – 24
July 28 – 29
July 30 – 31

These are in-person, two-day overnight sessions, with Honors College sessions on both days. Attendance at the Honors Orientation presentation on the afternoon of day two of New Student Orientation is required for all incoming first-year Honors students. Further details related to orientation schedules will be provided by the Office of New Student Orientation in advance of your selected session.
