Red Raider Orientation (RRO)

Welcome to the Red Raider Family and to the College of Education! We are excited to connect with you during RRO and have you as a student in the College of Education!

The College of Education is dedicated to academic excellence and student success. We hope that you will enjoy meeting with us this summer and gain the knowledge and information you need to be a successful student starting this fall.

RRO Steps and Process

Texas Tech's RRO is made up of three parts:

Part 1) Online Modules

• RRO Online Modules will introduce you to the resources and services provided to you as a Texas Tech student.
• These online modules must be completed prior to your RRO Advising & Registration session. Your "Academic Orientation" hold will only be removed on your session date AFTER you complete all of your modules.
• Be sure to use the admitted student tasklist to help you navigate. 
• Make sure you've set up your TTU Email!

Part 2) Check-in

Check-in at the Student Union Building (SUB)

To make your RRO and Advising session go as smoothly as possible if you've not already completed the content interest form, please do so prior to your advising session.  

Advising Process:

Step 1) To make your RRO and Advising session go as smooth as possible please fill out this quick form prior to your RRO session!

Step 2) You will be escorted to the College of Education for a brief information session.

Step 3) After the session, advisors will work with students individually.

• During your appointment you will learn and discuss the following:
  • Your Degree Plan
    • What courses are required by Texas Tech and the College of Education to graduate.
  • If you are a transfer student or a dual credit student, your advisor will review your previous transcripts and apply transferable credits to your degree plan.
  • Confirm that all of your holds have been removed.
  • Schedule Builder and how to register for classes.

Step 4) Register for classes

• After you have met all of the requirements set by Orientation Services, have removed all of your holds and met with your academic advisor you will be ready to register for classes.
• You may begin to register after 1:00 when registration opens.  The college advising team will be available at RRO Registration Advising. If you have questions about courses or registration, just drop in and we will be glad to assist you.

Part 3) Raider Welcome
