New Students
Orientation is designed to help prepare you for a successful transition to the Otterbein community! The sessions primarily occur in the summer over one day. Throughout the day you will attend sessions to help better prepare you to be an Otterbein student, learn more about campus programs and services, meet with an academic advisor to confirm your class schedule, take your student ID picture, and more! In order to secure your spot at your preferred summer session, return your New Student Information and Orientation Form as soon as possible. Once that form is received, we will send you a confirmation of your date and will include the information you need to attend orientation.

Parents and Guardians
Otterbein College highly encourages Parents and guardians to attend orientation as well! We have separate sessions for family members that will also help you prepare to send your student to Otterbein. You will also learn more about programs and service provided by Otterbein, get any questions answered, and meet faculty/staff and other parents. There is a fee for family members to attend orientation and covers the costs of the program for these guests.
