New Student Orientation

Registration for Summer Orientation 2024 Opens November 1st!

To Our Future Bulldogs,

Each year, we look forward to seeing the newest batch of Tech students at summer orientation! This is where your Tech story begins as you experience the beauty of campus, meet future classmates who become friends, and discover what makes the Tech community a family. We hope that after your time on campus, you students have found a home and will be excited to return to in the fall.

Be on the lookout for more information on orientation to your personal email address as we get closer to summer and your orientation date. If you have any questions, please check out our Orientation FAQ page. If you do not find the answer to your question below, please feel free to contact us at Orientation@LATech.edu.

Forever Loyal,
