Welcome to CCRI!
As a new CCRI Knight, you probably have a lot of questions about where to go, who to talk to, and what to do during your first
few days as a student.
New Student Orientation is a program that provides awareness of CCRI's resources and
offices, prepares students for their first day as a CCRI Knight, and kick starts your
school pride! We are offering both our in-person sessions and LIVE online sessions
via Zoom.
Upcoming (in-person and live virtual) sessions
New Student Orientation sessions for incoming Summer and Fall 2026 students are below!
Students will be invited to New Student Orientation through their CCRI email. You
can choose to come to an in-person session or attend a live online session. If you
are taking in-person courses, we recommend you attend the Orientation session on your
primary campus (where most of your courses will be taking place).
If your courses begin over the summer semester, we recommend you attend one of our
first two virtual NSO sessions. *Summer I NSO is on May 14th and Summer II NSO is
on June 24th.*
