What Is New Student Orientation (NSO)?

🎉 NSO is fun and full of helpful information designed to position new students for maximum success.

At New Student Orientation, you meet IHOPU faculty, staff, and incoming classmates. You are introduced to key departments that exist to support you through your seasons at IHOPU. We offer plenty of opportunities to ask questions before classes begin. NSO gets you plugged in right away so you feel confident and prepared for your first day of class!

‼ IMPORTANT: NSO is required for all incoming students. If there is some circumstance by which you cannot attend, email [email protected] and let us know your situation.

NSO Location

Most of our New Student Orientation will be located at our IHOPU campus:

12905 S U.S. 71 Hwy, Grandview, MO 64030.

Online Students: The Global Classroom Experience

For the Global Classroom Experience, your online NSO schedule will be found here.

Your NSO experience will include all that the on-campus students are experiencing with a few specific moments just for you.

Check-in & Student ID Card

We will be taking your photo at the first day of NSO and it will be used for your IHOPU student ID and yearbook (subject to change).
