Imagine orientation as the beginning to a great adventure housed in New York University and New York City, and made of books, people, experiences, ideas, and all sorts of other materials from the world around us. The members of your class, the Gallatin Class of 2013, will convene for the first time from June 23 through June 25. When you return in September, you'll be coming back to a place already familiar, and your beginning will, in fact, already be underway.

The goal of orientation is to introduce you to NYU and in particular to the Gallatin community, and to prepare you for the fall term. Part of orientation will be focused on introducing you to the people who will be important to your first year: Gallatin faculty, your class adviser, your classmates, and your class's orientation leaders, a group of current Gallatin students who will be able to answer questions great and small about NYU and New York City, too. And part will focus on introducing you to the exciting academic world you are about to enter, a world of interdisciplinary and individualized study in which you can explore the various schools of NYU: the College of Arts and Science, the Stern School of Business, the Steinhardt School of Education, the Tisch School of the Arts, the School of Continuing and Professional Studies, the School of Social Work, the Wagner School of Public Service, and, of course, Gallatin.

In addition to introducing you to this unique academic program, orientation will include many social activities, informal discussions, and other opportunities to help you make new friends and become familiar with NYU and the surrounding Greenwich Village neighborhood.
You will receive information about when to reserve a space at orientation via email and letter.

We look forward to seeing you at Orientation!
