Mark your calendar: New Student Orientation will be August 18-22. This multi-day experience for students is designed to help them take early steps to success that focus on academic readiness, connections with student leaders and campus professionals, and early conversations about common challenges in college.

Traditionally we have also hosted a handful of welcome events on the first day of Orientation for families and parents of new students (one day only). In recent years this has included welcomes from Administrators, a Parents and Family Information Fair, a Welcome event for Multicultural families, and our annual Matriculation exercises. We hope to have more details on these events for Fall 2021 available this summer.
