Aggie Welcome and Orientation (AWO)

All new, incoming freshmen and transfer students must complete orientation before registering for classes. Orientation will provide the tools and information to make your transition to our university system as easy as possible. Not only will you learn more about the NMSU system and the resources available, but you will also meet new friends and discover that we are a supportive and caring community.
