Step 7: Attend Orientation and Obtain a Parking Pass, Student ID, etc.

All students must attend FTC Orientation at the beginning of their program. At the time of orientation, students will meet instructional and support staff members and learn what is expected of them as a student at FTC. Orientation will be held either on the first day of class or a scheduled date prior to the start of classes, depending on the program. For questions regarding orientation dates and times, please contact the Program Facilitator.

Students must review the FTC Campus Handbook, Program Guide, and Code of Conduct before orientation. The registrar will notify you of how to obtain a student ID badge, parking decal, and will provide any pertinent information needed prior to the start of your program.
