New Student Orientation
New Student Orientation (NSO) is a special time designed to welcome incoming students and their families to 香港六合彩官网鈥檚 campus and surrounding community and ready hearts and minds for the formational experience of seminary. This is also a unique opportunity to connect with students, staff, and faculty as we seek to celebrate the work God has done in the lives of new students, foster community, and provide key tools and necessary information.
The Office of Student Services strongly recommends that each incoming student attend New Student Orientation at their Kentucky campus. Spouses are encouraged to attend, and childcare is provided. Online students are welcome to attend NSO on campus or tune in via our online webinar formats.
New Student Orientations are hosted at the start of each fall and spring semester. Listed below is a brief description of each orientation session as well as upcoming NSO dates.
