Orientation at TMCC

Welcome to Truckee Meadows Community College!

Choosing to pursue higher education is a carefully thought out decision and we applaud you for making such a commitment. You have an exciting journey ahead of you as you work to achieve your educational goal at Truckee Meadows Community College.

Getting the right information about strategies to help you succeed is important to keep you moving forward on the path to student success, academic achievement and graduation. To begin, TMCC offers two valuable options to satisfy the orientation requirement for new students:

In-Person New Student Orientation A fast-paced three-hour session that combines new student orientation with a group advisement workshop. If you are a new degree-seeking student and live within driving distance of TMCC (50 mile radius), you must schedule and appointment to attend new student orientation. During the interactive orientation presentation you will discover student success strategies, receive important financial aid information and learn about support services to help you be successful. You will also learn about academic requirements and receive assistance creating an academic planner.

Online Orientation This format is designed for students who do not live within driving distance of TMCC and are unable to participate in the new student orientation. Important: Upon successfully completing the online orientation, out-of-state and long distance students must contact the advisement office to receive instructions on how to complete the required enrollment step for academic advisement.
