What is New Student Orientation?
New Student Orientation (formerly known as Get Connected) is a two-day program which includes a series of interactive events that provide an introduction to the unique environment at BYU-Idaho, as well as the resources available to students. Participating in this orientation gives students the opportunity to connect with the University, the Savior, and their potential. The Orientation is not mandatory, but is strongly encouraged.
