Coming Soon
You can complete orientation in one of two ways at MiraCosta College: self-paced experience in your SURF account (Spartan Prep) or live interactive workshop via Zoom (Spartan Start Orientation). Students only need to complete one to receive orientation credit.
Please contact orientation@miracosta.edu with any questions.
Orientation and Student Support Department
The Orientation and Student Support Department (formerly known as Student Success and Support Program or SSSP) coordinates onboarding activities and offers two methods to complete orientation.
This office is committed to increasing student success through accessible and effective core services, empowering students with critical resources, and providing foundational support to help students achieve their educational goals.
For campus updates regarding COVID-19, please visit the MiraCosta College COVID Update Website.
