Welcome to New Student Orientation
Welcome to New Student Orientation at Gwinnett Technical College! It is our goal to meet your needs while providing a wealth of information as you begin your educational journey with us.
New Student Orientation is highly recommended for all incoming students who are new to the college. Some academic programs may have additional program-specific orientation sessions for students in addition to the general college New Student Orientation.
We offer the following formats for New Student Orientation:
- Live online sessions via WebEx (advance registration required)
- In-person, on-campus sessions (advance registration required)
- Self-paced session (completed anytime)
Please scroll to find more details and to sign-up for each orientation. Take time to read the frequently asked questions for more information as well.
There is limited capacity for all in-person, on-campus events. Only students who have registered for the event may attend. Registration is first-come, first-served for in-person, on-campus events.
You will receive an email 2 days prior to your session with the link and event password for online sessions and a reminder email with information for the on-campus sessions. WebEx is used for the live online orientation sessions.
Registration for each session closes at least 3 full business days prior to the start of the session to allow staff to provide you with the meeting details and instructions. The date registration closes for each orientation is included in the listing.

For those students who are not available to attend one of the Live on Online or Live in Person New Student Orientation’s we have developed a new “Self-Paced New Student Orientation”. It will take about about 75 minutes to complete. Once you have completed the orientation you must do the self paced orientation quiz which is only 10 questions, to show that you have attended a New Student Orientation.
If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to email studentsuccess@gwinnetttech.edu
