SAVE THE DATES! Class of 2025 Orientation Information

Orientation for the Class of 2025 will consist of a series of virtual presentations the week of June 14, 2021 and one-day on-campus sessions occurring the weeks of June 22-30, 2021. Students are being asked to attend one of the sessions affiliated with their school/college. The dates are:

• Tuesday, June 22- EGN and SOE
• Wednesday, June 23- CAS
• Thursday, June 24- DSB
• Monday, June 28- DSB
• Tuesday, June 29- CAS
• Wednesday, June 30- EGN and SOE

Students are allowed to have one guest accompany them to their in-person orientation session in June.

Face masks are required for all individuals on-campus and must be worn at all times with the exception of eating. All attendees are highly encouraged to be fully vaccinated for Covid-19 before coming to campus for their session, and all attendees will be asked to provide proof of vaccination and/or a negative result for a Covid-19 test taken within 72 hours of their session.

Detailed schedules will be shared in early June, however attendees should expect to be on-campus 8am-6pm the day of their session. The goals of the sessions are to support community building, introduce students and their families to campus, develop face-to-face connections with key campus partners. Students and their guests will be together for some informational presentations and have their own small-group experiences throughout the day.

During the summer, students will be pre-registered for five academic courses that count toward degree completion within your selected major. Before fall classes begin, there will be opportunities for you to meet with an advisor to make potential changes to this provided schedule.
