Guests and Parents

Our Transfer Orientation Guest Program is designed to help guests know as much as possible about the University so they will be in better position to encourage and support their student while he/she is pursuing a degree at Fresno State. During orientation, guests will learn about academic requirements necessary for their student to get a degree and the numerous programs and services available to help them reach that goal.

Some transfer students will need as little as four semesters at Fresno State before they graduate. Students are encouraged to bring their parent, spouse, significant other with them to orientation so they can learn how to help you succeed at Fresno State .

Students who wish to meet with Financial Aid should arrive at 7:00am to meet with them prior to DOG DAYS starting at 8:00am.
