草莓视频APP

New Student Orientation (NSO) is designed to help students acclimate to the college environment and have a successful start at 草莓视频APP. Our goal is to answer your questions, connect you to campus resources, and help you capitalize on your college experience. 

Online New Student Orientation (NSO)

MC’s interactive Online New Student Orientation is designed to introduce you to Montgomery College’s academic programs and requirements as well as to provide college resources that will help you acclimate to the college environment and get the most out of your MC experience.

During the orientation, you will find out which English or English as a Second Language (ESL) and possibly math course you have placed into and you will learn how those placements determine the courses you can take in your first semester. Completing the orientation provides an introduction to academic planning and is an important step in getting prepared for your first semester, selecting your courses, and getting registered.

All new 草莓视频APP students are required to complete the online orientation.

The online academic orientation can be accessed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It requires audio, although closed captioning is available for those preferring to read the recorded information. The orientation will take about 40 minutes to complete. You may complete it in one sitting or stop and return to where you left off at a later time, if you cannot complete it in one sitting. You may also need to clear your cache or history screen. Have your MyMC login information ready and new window.

You can sign-in to complete your orientation at least 48 hours after you have been admitted to the College and after you have either provided MC with information about your English level OR once you have determined your placement for English or English as a Second Language (ESL) through MC’s remote placement process. The list below shows the multiple ways you can obtain an English placement at 草莓视频APP:

You can start the online orientation if you have done one of the following:

• Submitted a qualifying English score to MC on the SAT, ACT, TOEFL or IELTS
• Submitted an official transcript to MC from a Maryland public high school with a qualifying grade point average
• Completed an English composition course at an American college or university (submit official transcript to MC Records & Registration)
• Completed the MC Remote Placement Process for either English or ESL (English as a Second Language)
• Find more information about the MC Remote Placement process here.

NOTE: It is important that you wait the required number of days before logging on to the online orientation; otherwise, you may not see your course placements.

In-Person New Student Orientation (NSO)

The Office of Student Life’s in-person and virtual New Student Orientation’s (NSO) goal is to provide incoming students with a sense of belonging. The virtual NSO session will provide students with resource information and information about how to get involved. The in-person NSO session provides resource information, information about getting involved and campus tours led by our NSO leaders.

Raptor Day is a supplement to New Student Orientation. Incoming students attend a resource fair to connect students to campus resources and they attend breakout sessions to learn about academic programs and support programs on campus. Students have the opportunity to participate in brief campus tours, obtain a Student ID, interact with 草莓视频APP’s student leaders, receive giveaways and engage in fun activities to prepare students for a smooth start to their college career. 

We encourage you to register for our NSO session and Raptor Day!
