Orientation programs are offered to assist new students with the transition to life at USC Aiken.
Our orientation programs are centered on you, the new student. Throughout the orientation program, you will be introduced to faculty, staff, and students and be given an opportunity to begin learning about your opportunities and responsibilities as a student.
After receiving their official acceptance letter, students will receive an email containing orientation program information.
Students are not charged a fee to attend an orientation program.

Math Placement
Due to the impact of COVID-19, students may take the math placement test (MPT) to improve their math placement for spring 2023. The results of the MPT will be compared to the student's standardized test scores and highest placement will be granted.
Students who do not have an SAT or ACT score should take the math placement test.
We look forward to seeing you on campus!
