New Student Orientation

Fees

A non-refundable First Year Experience and Orientation fee, set by the Indiana University Board of Trustees, covers costs for New Student Orientation, Welcome Week, and FYE services and programs throughout your first year. This fee will be assessed on your first IU tuition bill after you complete orientation. You do not need to pay it up front, but you are responsible for the fee once you make your orientation reservation.

  • New undergraduate student: $218
