Welcome to FCC! We look forward to getting to know you as you get started on your journey here!
Our New Student Orientation has two parts: an in-person advising session and an online orientation called Go2Orientation.
In Person Advising
During December and January, advising appointments are walk-in only, with limited opportunity to meet with the advisor assigned to your major. The best option for new students is to sign up for a Compass Day! At Compass Day, you’ll be able to:
- Tour our beautiful campus
- Learn about the many resources and support services we have
- Ask questions and learn about how to “do” college
- Meet your advisor and other students in your major
- Finalize your course schedule and sign up for classes!
Our next Compass Day is scheduled for
January 13, 2026. Click below to sign up!
Compass Day Registration
In the event that you cannot make the Compass Day, you can meet with an advisor in
Career and Academic Planning Services (CAPS). During December and January, walk-in advising is available. Please note that wait times may occur. Please

Go2Orientation
Go2Orientation is a convenient, easy-to-navigate virtual orientation program that all students should complete before starting your first semester. Through videos, links, and clear explanations, Go2Orientation gives new students the in-depth information you need to be successful at FCC. Take your time going through it, and you can always return to Go2Orientation to review any part.
