New Student Orientation

New Student Orientation is required for all students (on-campus and online) who are:

  • Attending college for the first time
  • Attending GTCC for the first time, but have previous college experience
  • Returning to GTCC after an absence of more than two years

New Student Orientation is not required for students who:

  • Have completed a bachelor’s degree or higher
  • Are enrolled at GTCC as Special Credit students (taking courses but not completing a program at GTCC)

Steps to Complete the Orientation Process

About 48 hours after completing your application in step 2, you will be able to activate your GTCC Titan Account. Please check your personal email to obtain your GTCC email address or contact admissions@gtcc.edu. Check your email for your initial password.

CREATE GTCC LOGIN

Once you have activated your Student Account (Titan Account), complete the online Orientation.  This is a short welcome and introduction to GTCC. 

COMPLETE ORIENTATION

Once you’ve completed orientation, the next step is to sign up for your First Advising session. You will learn how to register for classes, get information about resources that are available at GTCC, and work with a Student Success Coach to develop your college plan.
