New Student Orientation
Orientation activities are planned from Tuesday, Jan. 16, to Thursday, Jan. 18, for new students enrolling at UVI on both campuses. New student advisement and registration is scheduled for Thursday, Jan. 18, on the Albert A. Sheen Campus on St. Croix and on the St. Thomas Campus. All newly accepted students are required to participate in orientation activities prior to the start of the semester for academic advising and development of their class schedules.

“The University is excited to welcome new students to our campuses for Spring 2018,” said Verna Rivers, dean of students on the St. Thomas Campus. “Planned activities will get them ready to be successful academically. Campus tours will inform them of computer lab access, including needed resources like our 24/7 computer labs and our Center for Student Success.”
“We will welcome our new Buccaneers with open arms to our campus,” said Hedda Finch-Simpson, Dean of Students on the Sheen Campus. “Our orientation plans aim to acclimate students to life on campus to ensure their rapid success socially and academically.”
