Freshman Orientation (SOAR)
Session Requirements
Students are required to attend all parts of the SOAR program in order to receive their Fall schedule and complete their enrollment to the University. We ask that students and parents select an available date in which they can fully participate in all of the program's activities.
An example itinerary is located by clicking on Agenda. Students and their guests will receive a detailed itinerary at SOAR check-in.
Update: Due to COVID-19 and social distancing practices, the 2020 SOAR dates have been adjusted.
If you registered for a session already, please login to your reservation using the
instructions provided in your orientation invitation to see details regarding your
session date and check your student email for more information.
If you have not registered, please see the updated 2020 SOAR dates below to assist
with registering for orientation.
2020 Dates for First-Time Freshmen

All students registered for SOAR should log into their reservation (using the instructions
provided in their orientation invitation) to confirm the session they are registered
to attend. If you have questions, please contact the Office of New Student & Family
Programs at nsfp@tntech.edu.
