BVU Orientation

New students, join us for BVU Orientation. At this day-long event, you sign up for classes with the help of an academic advisor, connect with fellow Beavers, and learn everything you need to know to feel comfortable in what will soon be your new home. We can’t wait to see what you’ll build at BVU!
