Student Orientation, Advising and Registration

Student Orientation, Advising and Registration (SOAR) will help get you started on all things UC.

Your UC journey starts by attending one of our SOAR events.

We know it can seem overwhelming, and that there is a lot to know about coming to UC. But we are here to help. We recommend that you take a look at the easy to follow videos, documents, and other links below before coming to SOAR. And as always, feel free to ask us if you need help or an explanation.

Attending our SOAR event will give you the opportunity to be able to schedule an individual review session of your classes with an advisor/mentor, meet other new students, schedule an individual review session with our Financial Aid office, and so much more! There is no cost to attend.

You must be admitted and have paid your enrollment deposit before you can register to attend a SOAR event. If you have questions regarding your admissions status, please contact the Office of Admissions at 304-357-4750.
