Abstract

Most colleges and universities have some type of orientation program for new students. There are three general types of orientation programs: the semester-long course, the freshman week, and the pre-college clinic. While one purposes of these programs may be to enhance academic achievement, the literature suggests that the pre-college clinic is generally not effective in this area.
