School of Continuing Studies Welcomes New Students:

Attend an Online Orientation

Welcome to Northwestern University and the School of Continuing Studies.

To help you adjust to student life at Northwestern University, the School of Continuing Studies invites you to attend an Online Web-Ex Orientation to help you make the most of your first quarter at SCS. We look forward to seeing you.

Each Orientation session will be an Online Interactive Web Conference focused on a particular new student category. Each will familiarize students with basic information (registration, parking, WildCards, NetIDs, university e-mail, listservs, libraries, and related topics), to make the first weeks on campus more comfortable and to provide the opportunity to ask questions of SCS representatives.

Select the Orientation Session that applies to your program from those listed below.
