Fall 2022 Orientation
Transfer Orientation is an all-inclusive experience designed to help support your transition to Cal Poly Humboldt and show you what it means to be a member of our Lumberjack community.
You’ll learn how to navigate Humboldt’s online technologies in order to register for classes, and what it means to be an academically successful student. You'll also connect with faculty and students before school starts, and and learn how Cal Poly Humboldt can best support you in your time here. Orientation will be broken into two parts.
Part I
The first portion of your orientation will be in the form of an online Canvas course that you may complete at your own pace. The "New Student Orientation Tutorial" will introduce you to resources on campus, ways to get involved, and other helpful information. The New Student Orientation Tutorial opens Monday, August 1 at 5 PM, and closes Tuesday August 16 at 11:59pm.
To access your tutorial please visit your myhumboldt portal starting August 1 and click on the Canvas icon to be brought to your dashboard.
Part II
The second part of your orientation will be in-person and consists of a two-day orientation from Wednesday, August 17 through Thursday, August 18. Please check your Humboldt email for updates and information
