About NSO

You'll also go on an Orientation Adventure to help you get acclimated to your new Southern California home.

Once you arrive on campus, you'll participate in a variety of activities to get you ready for life at Pitzer. This will include info sessions to introduce you to key campus resources, academic preparation and advising meetings, an off-campus Orientation Adventure trip, and other social activities to get to know your peers.
