Transfer Student Orientation and enrollment

Register

Online registration is closed.

April 27 or 28, 2009, in the K-State Student Union

You are invited to orientation and enrollment for admitted transfer students. This is your best opportunity to select summer and fall courses.

Not only will you learn more about K-State, you'll also meet with an academic advisor and go through the class selection process. You can even take care of essentials like ordering textbooks and athletic tickets.

Activities start promptly at 8:30 a.m. in the K-State Student Union. The program may take until 5 p.m., so plan accordingly.

Before you come

Step 1: Register for the event

A nonrefundable $15 registration fee is required.

Step 2: Set up your eID

Before you can enroll in your courses, you must have an eID (electronic ID). This comprehensive computer ID will provide access to all your K-State electronic resources, including e-mail.
