About Wild Cat Welcome Week
The Online Student Orientation and Wild Cat Welcome Week are part of CCAC's mandatory three-tiered onboarding experience, designed to set you up for success both inside and outside the classroom.
The three tiers are:
- Virtual New Student Onboarding Session: All new applicants are invited to attend a virtual onboarding session to learn the steps needed to successfully complete the enrollment process.
- Online Student Orientation: Before registering for classes, students must complete the online orientation to understand college expectations and resources and how to navigate student systems.
- In-Person Wild Cat Welcome Week: Just before the semester begins, students are required to attend Wild Cat Welcome Week—an engaging, in-person event to get familiar with the campus; meet faculty, staff and peers; and kick off the college experience.
Online Student Orientation
This online orientation is essential for your success here at CCAC and is a step in the enrollment process. You will be introduced to all of the services and activities available to you as a new or returning student. The orientation is accessible online 24/7, enabling you to complete it at your convenience before classes begin.
Please have your student ID number ready to complete the Online Student Orientation. Your student ID number can be found in your email from CCAC Admissions or by logging in to your account at ccac.link/apply.
Wild Cat Welcome Week
Wild Cat Welcome Week is for enrolled students who are registered for classes. This in-person event will familiarize you with CCAC's campuses and resources and will provide you with an opportunity to start meeting your fellow students.
