IMPORTANT: In Next Steps Center, you must pay the Enrollment Fee to sign up for an Orientation (Virtual) date.

• Go to Next Steps Center > Path to Enrollment > Orientation (Virtual)
• This section will have a series of screens where you can select an orientation date, which will also unlock the ability to complete Arizona Arrival.

Your orientation will be split into two parts:

PART ONE:   Arizona Arrival (an online informational/orientation portal)

PART TWO:   The Zoom meetings on your selected orientation day. You'll attend a group meeting with your academic unit, and you will also meet 1-on-1 with an advisor to register for your first semester classes!

No, orientation is entirely virtual.

However, after you've completed your orientation, you can attend Destination Arizona -- an on-campus event that takes place right before classes begin!

On your orientation day, you'll have a Course Registration Appointment with an advisor (on Zoom) to register for classes.

Arizona Arrival is the first part of your orientation. It's an online, self-paced, informational portal where you can learn all about the University of Arizona, your academic unit, and what it means to be a Wildcat!

Not quite - it's only part one.

Along with completing Arizona Arrival, you'll need to select an orientation day to attend Zoom meetings with your academic unit and an advisor.

You can't access Arizona Arrival unless you've signed up for an orientation day in Next Steps Center.

If you've already done that, then make sure you're using the "Incoming Student" option when logging in.

If you're still experiencing an error, please contact orientation@arizona.edu.

For Spring 2027 students, the Arizona Arrival portal will be available starting October 5, 2026.

No. You’ll just need to submit those items as soon as they're available!

As it gets closer to your selected date, you'll receive emails at your University email with the Zoom links, appointment times, and other information to follow on your orientation day. Be sure to check your student email every day!
