Transfer Student Orientation and Registration

Online Orientation for Summer and Fall 2026 is now open. Watch your APSU email for instructions on how to access your orientation module and begin the advising process.

Transferring to a new institution comes with a lot of moving pieces. Governors Orientation (GO) is designed to cut through the noise — connecting you with your academic advisor, getting you registered for classes, and making sure you know where to go when you need help.

All new students must complete the online GO module before they will be connected with an academic advisor for course registration.

How Transfer Orientation Works

Transfer students complete Governors Orientation online. Starting March 15, you can log in and work through the GO module at your own pace. Once complete, you'll be cleared to connect with your academic advisor and register for courses.

Optional in-person orientation sessions are also available throughout the summer if you'd prefer to come to campus. You only need to attend one session — choose the date and time that works best for you.

Optional In-Person Sessions — Summer 2026

All sessions are held at the Morgan University Center. Parking is available in Lot 40.
