First-Year Students
Starting college is a big step to help you achieve your personal and professional goals. Here at UNI, we want you to achieve your dreams. We are here to help you transition to college life both inside and outside of the classroom. There are many programs and resources to help you prepare for your time at UNI, from Orientation and Panther Welcome to Peer Mentors and Welcome Week.
Transfer Students
As a transfer student we know you are not new to college, but you are new to UNI. We are here to assist in your transition to the Panther Family and help you hit the ground running. We have programs and resources specifically designed to help you achieve your personal and professional goals, from Orientation to specific Panther Welcome events just for you.
Family Members
We know our students have not gotten to this point all on their own. They have had support to get them to where they are now. We believe that a strong partnership with students' families and supporters is the best way to help students have a smooth transition and meet their goals.
