Overnight Experience

The Overnight Experience at New Maverick Orientation is an exciting opportunity to get a taste of being a student at UTA! You will love making new friends and great memories while you enjoy the contemporary accommodations of Vandergriff Hall and the delicious dining on campus. 

Freshmen attending a two day orientation for the Summer will participate in  a required a one-night stay in one of our residence halls on campus for the night of their session. No on-campus housing is available for guests, so explore other Arlington accommodations that offer a UTA discount.

The $170 orientation fee covers the cost of your overnight stay in addition to dinner, breakfast, and activities with our Orientation Leaders. 

The accommodations are double rooms in a suite shared by two students. Roommates for the overnight experience are randomly assigned and we are unable to accommodate roommate requests. Should you need a special accommodation related to your overnight stay, please see the Summer Conference staff team when you arrive for check in.

Check the Things To Bring page for a packing list.
