New Student Orientation

Welcome to CCCC! We are excited that you have chosen to attend CCCC. So what now? If you are like most new students, you are looking forward to a great college experience, excited but with questions about what to expect. In general, students who attend college orientation programs are better prepared academically to start their first semester of college. Attending New Student Orientation is the perfect time for you to get a feel for the campus community, learn about your academic program, register for your first classes at CCCC, connect with faculty, staff and current students, and learn what it means to be a member of the CCCC family.

Are some of your questions?

• How does college differ from high school?
• How challenging are the classes?
• What kind of fun things does the campus offer?
• Where can I go to get help if needed?
• Do I have the study skills necessary for college?
• What can I do to insure that I will be successful at CCCC?

Central Carolina's New Student Orientation program is a wonderful opportunity to get questions answered and get started navigating the logistics associated with starting college or transferring from one school to another. It is also an opportunity to make friends and have FUN!

The New Student Orientation program hosts organized, purposeful, and positive introduction sessions for all new CCCC students and their families. These sessions help them become familiar with services and programs vital to their successful transition as full and active members of the CCCC community. Partnering collaboratively with other college offices and departments, these sessions help students gain the skills, information and meaningful relationships important to successful long-term academic and personal outcome.
