Veteran Orientation Dates

Military-Connected Transfer Students can choose to attend one of our Veteran Orientation sessions or a traditional Transfer Orientation. Military-Connected Freshmen must attend one of our Freshman Orientations.

Veteran & Non-Traditional Student Orientation is required for all new veteran and non-traditional students at The University of Texas at Arlington. This experience is designed to support students balancing academics with work, family, or military commitments. During orientation, you’ll learn about campus resources, connect with fellow Mavericks, receive academic advising, and register for your courses—all to help you start your UTA journey with confidence.

One-day, in-person orientation sessions.
