Welcome to Great Falls College!

Navigating at a new college is exciting but can also be overwhelming. You’ll be most successful if you understand campus processes and expectations before you start classes. We require all new, transfer, and re-admitted students to complete a series of online orientation modules. These modules should take approximately 45 minutes to complete and provide more information about Great Falls College and highlight areas that will aid you in your success.
