Welcome to the UCA Family!
Congratulations on your admission to UCA! We are so excited you will be attending UCA and look forward to connecting you to the many resources we have to offer and the new community you will soon call “home.” Spring Orientation is an optional orientation program welcoming our new Bears for the spring semester. Whether you are a first time college student, transferring to UCA, or coming back to UCA after a break, Spring Orientation is for you! It is designed to showcase resources and opportunities you will find integral to your success while at UCA.
Spring Orientation is held the day before instruction begins each spring semester. For spring 2027, the date is Wednesday, January 13. The program will be held from 1:30-3:00 p.m. in theĀ Ronnie Williams Student Center Ballroom.
Please plan to arrive between 12:45-1:15 p.m. to check in and set up your BearCard Mobile (your UCA ID) and your parking permit. Spring Orientation will end at approximately 3:00 p.m. Afterward, you can participate in an optional personalized class schedule tour, where our orientation leaders will take you to the buildings and classrooms listed on your spring 2027 course schedule.
