Summer and Fall Transfer Student Orientation

Once you accept your admission offer, the process of orientation begins for you. Below is an outline of what you can expect from us before you get started at Bradley University. You are encouraged to attend one of our virtual registration day programs on April 4 or 5, where we will assist you in registering for fall 2024 classes, and our final on-campus program in August. While there is no additional program for the parent or family member you can bring with you, they are more than welcome to attend with you. Each parent or guest will be charged $10 for the lunch being served during the on-campus program in August. Payment can be made prior by calling the Orientation Office at 309-677-2420 or paying on-site that day.

  • A member of the Orientation team will walk you through any questions you have, as well as prepare you for the next steps in orientation and class registration.
  • Starting Off - our online orientation program, will be made available to you. You should take time to navigate through the whole program before you arrive on campus in August. This will be made available to you in late Spring or early Summer.
  • The official Transfer Student Orientation will be held on Monday, August 19, 2024 from 12-3pm. At this event, you will get more detailed information on campus services and resources and how they will be helpful to you. You will receive an official invitation later.

Please follow the instructions at this link if you have not yet spoken with your academic advisor.

Please let us know if you have any questions. In the meantime, make sure you have your final transcripts scheduled to be sent (if not already received) and that you are making the necessary tuition arrangements with Student Financial Services.

If you are eligible for federal VA benefits, please make sure you have reviewed the information at this page.

Attendance at Orientation programming is only available to new transfer students who have made their enrollment deposit. There is no fee for students to attend or participate in any Orientation programming.
