The Office of First Year Experience (FYE) & Orientation welcome you to the College of Southern Nevada. Your next step to becoming a Coyote is to participate in orientation. Orientation is an important part of the new student First Steps requirements and is required for all incoming first-time in college students and students new to CSN. Completion of the new Student Online Orientation meets First Steps orientation requirements, one of the three important steps to remove the New Students First Steps Hold on your MyCSN account.

As a result of completing orientation, our goals are for students to experience the following learning outcomes:

  • Develop a value for the importance of community within CSN
  • Enhance knowledge of career paths, degrees, and student success
  • Cultivate awareness and exposure to CSN campus resources
  • Communicate students’ rights and responsibilities
  • Understand where and when to obtain academic advising help
  • Enhance knowledge of student activities, student leadership and service-learning opportunities
  • Complete the first steps enrollment process

Orientation will help answer questions that are common to new students, introduce you to student resources and services, connect you with faculty, staff, and other students, and put you on the path to a successful transition to CSN and college life.
