New Student Orientation, Fall
Welcome to PLNU!
PLNU will host New Student Orientation (NSO) 2020 from August 1-16, 2020 with virtual, live-streamed, and in-person components. New students will be able to move into their residence halls on August 13-15, 2020 at their assigned move-in time, which will be sent out to each student's PLNU email address.

PLNU is dedicated to providing students with disabilities access to the programs, services, and activities of the university, as required by the Americans with Disabilities Act (1990) and Amendment (2008), and by Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act (1973). The Disability Resource Center (DRC) provides reasonable accommodations so otherwise qualified students with disabilities may, as independently as possible, meet the demands of university life.
