2023-2024 Undergraduate Catalog

Orientation

Freshmen and transfer students participate in a required orientation program. Orientation is a learning experience that helps students understand academic and career expectations, become involved in collegiate life, and learn about the transition period students may experience as they enter college. During Orientation students meet with academic advisors, register for courses, and get their Ball State (ID Card). Admitted students who have confirmed their enrollment and paid the non-refundable enrollment deposit will be invited to register for an orientation program date. Family members are encouraged to attend Orientation.
