Welcome, future Longhorns! We're excited for you to join the Longhorn family.
The next step in your journey is to participate in Longhorn Orientation, where you'll get better acquainted with academic and campus resources, meet your fellow new Longhorns and register for classes. It’s all at orientation, and it’s required for incoming students.
We're looking forward to seeing you at Longhorn Orientation!
