New Student Orientation
Saturday, September 6, 2025
Attending New Student Orientation at Goodwin University is an essential first step toward a successful college experience, especially within the first week or two of starting your classes!
New Student Orientation provides you with a comprehensive introduction to campus resources, academic expectations and support services that are designed to help you thrive. It’s a valuable opportunity to meet faculty, staff, and peers, and get familiar with the campus environment before classes begin.
You will learn how to log into your student email, obtain a student ID card and parking pass, read your schedule, navigate the registration/class portal, financial aid, student life activities, and so much more. This sets the foundation for a smooth transition and a confident start.
By attending New Student Orientation, whether it is on-ground/in-person or virtually on Zoom, you will become part of the Goodwin University community and are better prepared to make the most of your educational journey.

We also have some homework for you. To get the most out of your visit, you’ll need to watch a few short videos before you arrive. These videos include contact information, emergency protocol and information about various resources on campus. Any questions you have about the videos can be answered on Saturday. The fourth video is designed to get you familiar with the buildings on our campus — a POV shuttle tour of Goodwin.
If you have any questions in the meantime, please reach out to
