Due to COVID-19 and the risk of coronavirus, the Florida Tech campus has decided to move Summer 2020 orientation online.

Please make sure to upload a picture for your ID in Panther Pass as pictures will not be taken in person for an ID at the Campus Services Office.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to email orientation@fit.edu.
