Congratulations and welcome to New York Institute of Technology (NYIT). Orientation is designed to help you make a smooth transition to NYIT. During Orientation, current students, staff, and faculty work: to welcome you and your family members to NYIT; to create an environment preparing you for the next step of your journey through college; and to help you meet new people and ask questions. The goal is to ensure that you have a worthwhile, informative, and enjoyable experience.

We are delighted that you have decided to become a part of New York Institute of Technology. New Student Orientation is only the beginning of the exciting, challenging, and rewarding times ahead of you.
