New Student Orientation
The Student Affairs staff welcomes you to
Salem Community College!
New Student Orientation (NSO) provides you and your family information and tools for exploring SCC’s offerings, accessing important resources, and learning about a wide range of activities and programs. Meet other new students and make valuable connections with current students, faculty and staff. Research shows that new students who make these connections are more likely to be successful in their transition to college.
Whether you are a first-year or a transfer student, NSO will be a great experience to prepare for both your in-class and out-of-classroom experiences.
New Student Orientation is mandatory.
