The Gopher Guide website is a comprehensive resource designed to help you navigate academics, campus life, and involvement opportunities at the University of Minnesota, ensuring a smooth transition and a strong start to your college experience.

If you have enjoyed the programs hosted by Orientation & Transition Experiences and want to support future new students in their transition to campus, consider getting involved in our work through Student Leadership & Employment opportunities.

In a collaboration between Orientation & Transition Experiences and the Arts & Culture Committee of Student Unions & Activities, we present My U, My View, an annual student art exhibit that any current student can contribute to. The exhibit is showcased in the CMU Art Gallery every summer and highlights the student experience from our students’ point-of-view.

If you would like to be considered for the My U, My View student art gallery, please submit your photos and a brief explanation of how they represent what belonging means to you to [email protected] .
