Transfer Student Orientation at Saginaw Valley State University 

3 STEPS to TOP

The TOP dates are listed on the PDF form linked below. Remember to rank ALL of the dates with your choices from first to last.  The sooner you return your request form with your top date picks, the more likely you are to get your first choice.  SVSU’s orientation programs are filled on a first come, first served basis.

1. Complete and return the TOP Request Form PDF (26KB, download Acrobat Reader), and we will assign you an orientation date based on your preferences and program availability. A $20 non-refundable fee is required to attend TOP.  Make checks/money orders payable to: SVSU

2. Return the form to:
TOP - Admissions Office
7400 Bay Rd
Saginaw Valley State University
University Center, MI 48710

3. WAIT FOR YOUR CONFIRMATION CARD. Watch for your confirmation packet in the mail.  It will let you know the specific date that you will need to attend TOP. 

PLEASE NOTE: Due to the number of students attending TOP, you MUST attend only the specific TOP date listed in your confirmation packet. To formally change your date you will need to complete a “date change” form available at www.svsu.edu/aac/orientation/top-date-change-form.
