Graduate Orientation
Welcome New Graduate Students!
We are excited to have you join the NSU College of Psychology! Please see below for information about the New Student Orientation schedule, as well as departmental contact information and important links. (NOTE: THIS PAGE WILL BE UPDATED THROUGHOUT THE SEMESTER).
New Student Orientation Schedule
Your onboarding to the College is very important to us. So we have designed a process that consists of offering several sessions throughout the semester. The main graduate orientation session, which is mandatory, will be on Thursday, Aug 19, 2021 at 9 am ET. This session will consist of a college-wide graduate orientation section and a program specific section. The remaining sessions, which are not mandatory, will focus on a variety of topics and will be offered throughout the semester. Invitations to the all sessions will be emailed to you directly.
