Transfer Orientation

At Southeast, we are committed to making the transition to our campus community easier for you.

Transfer Orientation is an optional event for students who have completed 24 or more college credit hours. During this orientation, we introduce you to Southeast, other transfer students, and your academic advisor to jumpstart your education process at SEMO.

Registering for Orientation

You will log in to register for orientation using your SEMO credentials. Please make sure you have activated your SE Key before registering for orientation.

You will only see orientation options for which you meet the criteria to attend. If your credit evaluation is not yet completed, you should wait until you have received that information, or you may not see the option to register for Transfer Orientation.

If you have under 24 transferable credit hours (at least one full semester post-high school), as determined by your credit evaluation, you must complete the First STEP Orientation.

Virtual Orientation

Transfer students who do not wish to complete an in-person event day can register for our option listed as 1:1 Advising and Virtual Transfer Orientation. Once registered, your customized task list will populate with the steps to schedule advising and give you a link to our optional self-paced orientation.

Enrollment Fee

All new transfer undergraduate domestic students (not exclusively at a regional campus or in a fully online degree program) will be charged a $100 enrollment fee on their first full semester bill to Southeast. There is no separate charge for orientation.

Transfer Orientation introduces you to the personal support systems that set you up for amazing achievements in your time on campus. We give you the time and place to meet with your academic advisor in one of our groundbreaking academic areas that will help you launch an extraordinary career.
