Aug. 21-25 New Student Orientation

Huston-Tillotson welcomes new students, both first-year and transfer.

Orientation is designed to assist students in transition into the University; therefore, all events are mandatory and prompt arrival is essential. Although orientation is specifically designed for first-year students (anyone with fewer  than 30 earned credit hours), all students are welcome to attend events/activities. Student Portal training (myhtu) for Transfer students will be held.  Check back for the date and time.

Assessment allows the University to determine in which Math and English courses students should register. Typically, first-time students with certain high school exit examination scores or college entrance exam scores are exempt from assessment. First-time students and transfer students who have passed a college level Math and English course will be exempt from those portions of the assessment.

Registration allows students access to their personal MyHTU account, enroll in classes, pay tuition and fees, and obtain a student ID card.

Parents: There is a specific orientation designed just for you scheduled.  Check back for the date and time. Make preparations to stay for the New Student Matriculation Ceremony on Thursday, August 22 at 11 a.m. in King-Seabrook Chapel.
