D
"Writer/director Ryan Shiraki certainly adds some youthful exuberance to his debut feature film, but it's all wasted on a tremendously misguided and exhaustively dim screenplay"  eFilmCritic.com  Brian Orndorf

2.5/4
"Blessedly shrewd where it counts and deserves notice. The lessons develop naturally and aren't jammed down the viewer's throat like the hypocritical sermonizing in I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry."  TheMovieBoy.com  Dustin Putman

2/4
"Consider my two-star rating an indication that the film's Gut-Buster-to-Forehead-Slapper ratio is relatively even."  Slant Magazine  Ed Gonzalez

B-
"The film's abundant humor and sharp tongue give way to watery romantic-comedy conventions in the end."  EricDSnider.com  Eric D. Snider

3/4
"I was honored and privileged to say that I saw a film at Sundance that actually captured the fun of pretending to be gay to win a sorority sister."  eFilmCritic.com  Erik Childress

2.5/4
"Freshman Orientation feels a bit like a missed opportunity. It's too bad the motion picture as a whole isn't as quirky and clever as its double-edged title."  ReelViews  James Berardinelli

1/4
"...might push boundaries better were it not so painfully unfunny."  TV Guide's Movie Guide  Maitland McDonagh

2/4
"Freshman Orientation barely rates a passing grade."  Reel.com  Timothy Knight
