Get oriented to campus by attending an in-person Connect Session orientation. These personalized sessions last about 30 minutes and are required, unless you provide the documentation for any of the following exemptions:
- You've completed at least 15 credit hours at an accredited US college with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or above.
- You've completed a bachelor's or graduate degree from an approved English-speaking college.
- You're an approved apprentice from Ford, General Motors, Chrysler, Visteon, or another company.
- You have a valid guest student application from your home institution.
If you're exempt, you're encouraged—but not required—to attend.
Please note, these sessions are for students only; guests will be asked to kindly wait outside of the lab during this student experience. Parents and family are encouraged to attend Parent and Family Orientation instead.
