Join us for Orientation 2024
Thursday, August 22 - Sunday, August 25
Fall Orientation is required for all new students. This is an important time, designed to prepare you for the social and academic transitions into campus life. No registration is required, and there are no fees for Fall Orientation. You will be automatically enrolled in the program; a schedule will be provided for you at check-in.
Note: Adult learners (students over the age of 23 who do not live on campus) are welcome to attend the modified Adult Learner Program in lieu of the full Orientation program.
Classes begin at 8 a.m. on Monday, August 26, 2024.
