Jaguar Journey
Jaguar Journey Welcome Weekend provides all new students the opportunity to learn in-depth about campus, meet new friends, and earn prizes- all while having fun in friendly competition.
Welcome Jaguars!
On behalf of every member of #JAXNATION, we are excited that you have decided to enroll at Texas A&M University-Victoria. New Student Orientation helps you transition into college and make sure you are ready to begin on your first day of classes. Attending a New Student Orientation session is an important step, and one you won't want to miss!
Sessions are held throughout the summer to acclimate you to campus and meet other new Jaguars. New Student Orientation sessions are guided by a team of Orientation Leaders, current A&M-Victoria students, who have been selected to help you along your journey. As you begin to transition into college, it's essential to learn and hear from those who have been in your shoes before.
