Kick off your college journey with Orientation Activities and Events designed to help you thrive. Connect with fellow students, explore campus resources, and feel ready to tackle your first semester. Orientation is your launchpad for building friendships, finding support, and making the most of your time on campus. 

Orientation helps students connect with their peers, so we recommend that family members refrain from attending. 

We encourage parents and supporters to review Tips for Parents and Supporters for information on how to support your success and learn more about the College's resources. You’re an integral part of our active and supportive community. We want you to feel confident as you begin your first semester at Langara.

Registration 

New Student Orientation for Summer 2026 will be on Wednesday, April 29, 2026. This event will be in-person and on-campus. International students will begin the day at 9:00 AM and domestic students will begin the day at 11:00 AM. 

You will need to register to attend an orientation event. All new students who are admitted and registered in at least one Summer 2026 course will automatically receive an email invitation to sign up for New Student Orientation. Students accepted but not yet registered for Summer classes will not receive this invitation until they have enrolled. The first round of invitations will go out in early April 2026. 

Note: Only students who have been accepted and registered in Summer 2026 classes will receive an email invitation to register. If you have been accepted to Langara but have not registered for Summer 2026 courses, you are not eligible to register for Orientation events.

To ensure a comfortable and welcoming Orientation experience, let us know about any accessibility needs when you register. Our Orientation Planning Team is also available at orientation [at] langara.ca (orientation[at]langara[dot]ca) to discuss accommodations and support you every step of the way.

For any questions about Orientation after you've registered, contact orientation [at] langara.ca (orientation[at]langara[dot]ca). We're here to help make your transition smooth and enjoyable.
