University of Phoenix Orientation Workshop
Earning a degree is a big commitment, and we're committed to helping you
University of Phoenix created the Orientation Workshop* to help you make an informed decision about your academic future. During this three-week workshop, you'll learn about the resources we provide to help you succeed academically. You'll also find out if you're ready for the challenges and expectations of earning a degree, and if University of Phoenix is right for you.
