Why Orientation
Transfer Orientation is an important activity that will help you transition into our University. During orientation, you will receive advising information, course registration instructions, Financial Aid updates, campus tours, resource information, and more! If you have not already reserved your space, remember to register on your MyCSUEB at my.csueastbay.edu
Why Orientation? As a transfer student, many aspects of the college environment are already familiar to you. However, Cal State East Bay is a new institution with new expectations and procedures, new academic requirements, and exciting new challenges. Your attendance will be a valuable investment in your future college career!
We welcome the Disabled Community. If you need accommodations such as sign language interpreter, materials in an alternative format, etc., please inform us at least two weeks prior to your Orientation Session, if possible.
