FAQs

Can I bring a guest?

Absolutely! All we ask is that you please indicate that you are bringing a guest during the registration process.

Is Archer Orientation mandatory?

We highly encourage you to attend Archer Orientation. It is a fun and fast way to get all of the information you need for your first semester at STLCC! You will get a chance to become familiar with your campus and ensure you are ready for a successful year!

I can’t make Orientation at any of the dates on my primary campus, can I attend one at another campus?

Yes! You can attend orientation at any campus; it is the same presentation and information.

Do I need to be registered for classes to attend orientation?

Yes! Make sure you are admitted to the college and registered for your first semester of classes.

I can’t make it to an in-person orientation, how can I still participate?

Our in-person orientation sessions are jam-packed with all of the resources specific to your campus, a campus tour, and access to faculty and stuff. However, we understand not everyone can make it to campus. You can still receive a lot of great information from a virtual orientation session. We also encourage you to connect with the First Year Experience Team on Microsoft Teams! This channel is an invaluable resource, which includes pre-orientation modules you can access anytime, opportunities to connect with your fellow students and STLCC Staff, and giveaways to win STLCC Swag.
