Welcome Warrior!
Student Orientation and Transitions provides support that assists first-year students, transfer students and their families with a successful transition into Stan State. Once students accept admission to the University, we offer services from New Student Orientation to Weeks of Welcome. We want to make sure students have the resources they need to succeed! Our goal is to help students learn what it means to be a Warrior academically, socially and culturally.
