New Student Orientation at Gloucester

​
​

Welcome to New Student Orientation (NSO)

New Student Orientation (NSO) is your first step toward a successful college experience at RCSJ. Its goal is to help you transition smoothly into college life and equip you with the tools needed for academic success. After completing NSO, all students will meet with their academic advisor to begin selecting courses for the upcoming semester. 

Important Update: RCSJ is transitioning to a new student experience for the enrollment process. As a result, course registration and enrollment following New Student Orientation may experience some delays throughout the month of July. RCSJ Advisors are actively working to support you and ensure a smooth registration experience. We appreciate your patience and are committed to assisting you with registration for the Summer or Fall 2025 semesters.



NSO is offered in two formats. While students are highly encouraged to attend in person for the most engaging and comprehensive experience, virtual options are also available for added convenience. 

Option 1: In-Person NSO!​

The On-Campus Orientation gives students the opportunity to connect with RCSJ staff, explore campus resources, and meet their assigned advisor to enroll in courses. Explore our in-person orientation options below:
