Dear Highlanders,

On behalf of the Vice Provost for Undergraduate Studies, I am pleased to welcome you to your first year at NJIT.  The Office of Student Transition (OST) is committed to providing all the information and resources you need to transition smoothly to NJIT and be academically successful. We pride ourselves on creating a warm and friendly environment where you can feel comfortable to ask all the questions you have.  We promise to guide you through your first-year student journey!  

Our team looks to provide you access to resources that may assist you in achieving your academic and personal goals. Our resources are designed to assist you in orienting to the NJIT campus community and learning all the policies and procedures you need to know, such as how and when you can register for classes, how to request a change of major, and where to find all the important dates and deadlines the university sets.   

My team of wonderful colleagues who are dedicated to providing you with the time and resources to support your success at NJIT are excited to meet you.  Below are the offices under the Office of Student Transition:

• New Student Orientation

In closing, my team and I look forward to assisting you as you begin this new journey.

Make sure to make each day an amazing one!
