Additionally, for those who prefer evening classes, our Evening Adult Education orientation is designed to accommodate your schedule. Recognizing time constraints, the night orientation is a two-evening process, and it’s crucial to attend both nights to complete the orientation process fully. Please note that attending only one night is not sufficient for enrollment.

Evening orientations are scheduled based on the campus/site location. Orientations will begin at 5 pm. To be eligible for evening orientation, students must be 18 years old or older. Don’t forget to bring your photo ID or passport for verification purposes. We understand the importance of having multiple options, and we’re here to support your educational journey in the way that suits you best.
