Whether you're here to get a degree, get a better job, or to transfer on to another college or university, an Aims education will provide you with an excellent academic foundation. You are investing many financial and personal resources to attend classes at Aims, and that's why we've developed the New Student Orientation - with your needs in mind.
New Students! Register for your orientation session (CSL 178) on the Advising/Registration Form you receive during advising or via Web Services. This is a free, one-time class.
You’ll get the information you need for buying books, getting your Student ID, understanding the syllabus and faculty requirements, and find-your-classes tours. You’ll leave with “week one winners” for success.1. Take the Assessment Test or meet Assessment Requirement
