Welcome to graduate study at USC.
Who can attend orientation?
Why attend orientation?

Welcome to USC! We are excited that you are joining the Trojan Family and look forward to seeing you at orientation.

Graduate student orientation is designed for certified students* who have been admitted to a graduate or professional program.

*Students who have submitted their intent to enroll in graduate studies and any commitment deposit required by their program of study.

Though most departments will hold their own orientation sessions for new graduate students, our event will introduce you to campus life and the university’s resources, as well as USC’s expectations for graduate-level study and research.
