New International Student Orientation

Coming to a new country can be a challenging experience. It can also be exciting and full of opportunities! To assist you with the transition from your home country to 桃花社区视频 Dominion University, we require all new international students attend the mandatory International Student Orientation.

This virtual event, see the section titled Let's Get You Ready For New International Student Orientation provides an opportunity for students to learn about University services, policies, and procedures, and to network with other students. It is different from Preview, 桃花社区视频's on-campus orientation program for new students, and from orientations that might be provided by a department or a college.
