Transfer Student Orientation
Orientation is designed to help facilitate a smooth transition for all new students as they embark on their lives at SCAD. Families and students become acquainted with the academic environment, support services and facilities at the university; review important policies and procedures; and connect with both current students and fellow incoming students. In addition, new students' family members learn about supporting their students during the transition to life at SCAD.
Visit MySCAD for orientation updates. For additional information, call 912.525.4400.
