New Student Programs
The Office of New Student & Family Programs is dedicated to introducing incoming students and their families to the lifestyle, programs and opportunities available at UT Tyler in order to aid them in the transition process and integrate new students and their families into the UT Tyler community. One of the primary functions of the office is to provide comprehensive orientation programs for new undergraduate students and their family members. Sessions for students beginning their UT Tyler career in the spring semester are offered in January. Sessions for students beginning in the fall semester are offered June through August. An engaging and interactive online orientation is also available to students. New Student Programs also hosts Swoop Camp, which is an optional extended orientation program for incoming freshmen that takes place in the summer. First Year Experience programs are also hosted by this office, to acclimate new students to the campus community and their peers through a variety of fun and educationally centered programs.
Orientation is mandatory for all new undergraduate students.
