We are delighted you have chosen the University of Cincinnati as your new home, and we are confident you will find your experience to be a remarkably rewarding one.
Our top priority is to assist you in making a successful academic and social transition into the Cincinnati community. For this reason, all new undergraduate students at UC's Uptown Campus should attend Bearcats Bound Orientation (BBO) before their first semester of classes.
Learn more about Orientation at UC and what to expect from the different activities.
Once you've confirmed your admissions to UC, you can sign up for Orientation. We encourage to register as soon as possible to reserve your preferred date.
See what steps and actions you need to complete as part of BBO, before your in-person Orientation.
Bearcats Bound Orientation is for incoming first-year students at UC's Uptown Campus, but students at other campuses and students who are not first-year may have mandatory or optional Orientation as well. Check the links below for more information.
