New Student Orientation

UB welcomes new students and their families and provides for a successful transition to university life through exciting and information-packed activities. Our Office of First Year Experience and Programmes will lead new students learning our campuses, introduce them to the academic and co-curricular life of the institution, and connect them with the resources available for their success.

Among the activities planned are the ever-popular information session for parents, a welcome ceremony, a showcase of clubs and other organizations, campus and island tours and student success seminars. New students also meet with faculty and other academic staff who share detailed information about programmes of study and advise them on courses. During this transition period, students also reserve and pay for their courses and get their UB ID cards to complete their enrolment in University of The Bahamas.
