New Student Orientation
New Student Orientation
Our mission at New Student Orientation (NSO) is to support the continual process of integrating new students into the academic, cultural and social context of CSUN.
NSO oversees a wide range of programming for freshmen, transfer students, international students, and parents and guardians.
A team of student employees and volunteers assists the professional staff and supports NSO efforts year-round. The diverse team is guided by university, divisional, and departmental goals and values, and contributes to the success of the overall orientation experience.
