The University of Central Oklahoma will host New Broncho Orientation for new students from 8 a.m.-5 p.m., May 13, 15, 19, 21 and 22; June 23, 24, 25 and 30; and July 2, 8, 10, 22, 24 and 30, on Central’s Campus. ​

New Broncho Orientation is an integral part of the transition for students coming to UCO. During the one-day event, attendees will have the opportunity to meet fellow students, learn about campus resources and how to get involved at Central, meet with an academic advisor and enroll in courses. ​

“New Broncho Orientation is a great way for all incoming Bronchos to get a head start on their time here at UCO,” said Kay Robinson, Ed.D., assistant vice president of Student Affairs at UCO.

“It offers them the opportunity to not only register and prepare for courses but also helps them to make connections with others in the Central community.” ​

New Broncho Orientation is required for all incoming UCO students. If incoming students scored below a 19 on any section of the ACT, or did not take the ACT, they will need to take a placement test before attending UCO. If an incoming student needs to take a placement test, contact UCO Testing Services at testingservices@uco.edu or call 405-974-2388.

UCO continues to accept applications for the 2025-26 academic year. Prospective students should visit apply.uco.edu to submit their application. Once accepted to the university, admitted students will receive a notification regarding registration for a New Broncho Orientation session. ​
