Due to the Covid-19 pandemic and its ongoing impact, CCD has moved to a fully online new student orientation.

Studies show if you attend orientation programs and other first-year experience courses, you will have greater success while in college. College is an investment of time and money—you want to get the most you can out of the college experience and orientation will help you do that.
Orientation is mandatory for all F1 students. Please register now! Refer to your final acceptance letter for details on the location/date/time of the mandatory International Orientation. Only one International Orientation is offered per semester, so please be sure to register for and attend the correct session. Please contact International@ccd.edu.
Orientations fill to capacity very quickly; we encourage you to give yourself plenty of extra time to find our campus, park and walk to the orientation location.
