New Student Orientation

Welcome, Vanguard!

Congratulations on your decision to join the Vanguard community! ASU-Beebe looks forward to working with you throughout your transition to college. Through programs like New Student Orientation and Welcome Week, we seek to provide you with the information and experiences to prepare and excite you for the beginning of your college experience.

Beebe Campus Orientation

New Student Orientation (NSO) at ASU-Beebe is a 3-hour program aimed at providing you, and your family, with an introduction to life on campus, a snapshot of the college classroom environment, and an opportunity to finalize all your student account details (i.e., financial aid, class registration, etc.). All new students are strongly encouraged to attend NSO. A companion program for parents and families is available for family members traveling to ASU-Beebe with you for NSO. Tickets are required due to limited capacity.

These sessions are open to any new student taking classes on our four campuses. *Evening Events

Students are limited to two (2) Family Members/Support Persons to accompany them to in-person New Student Orientation.

What will New Student Orientation be like?

New Student Orientation is designed to connect you to fellow students, campus life, and college traditions. The session will include small group interaction with student leaders, free giveaway games, and a presentation highlighting the most important information you need to know to be successful in your first year at ASU-Beebe.
