Freshmen Registration and Orientation

Freshmen registration and orientation dates are held prior to the start of the fall semester. All first-time freshmen must attend one of these sessions and must pay the Freshman Fee ($100) prior to participating. During Freshmen Registration Sessions, students will meet with an Academic Advisor to select their fall schedule. In addition student and parents will participate in various activities to assist them in learning the services Cumberland has to offer as they begin their journey at Cumberland.

Freshmen Orientation includes a variety of programs and events that will help you make Cumberland University your new “home away from home.” It's a great opportunity to meet students, staff, and faculty. You will learn about the resources that Cumberland University provides. In addition, you will be introduced to Peer Mentors, students who will assist you with the transition to higher education. The Office of Student Success & Retention provide Peer Mentors, which assist with Freshman Orientation, and will help freshmen successfully navigate through their first year at Cumberland University
