Welcome Week is a six-day, on-campus experience prior to the start of the fall semester, required of all first-year students. This new program is designed to complement the Freshman Orientation experience, and provide opportunities to enhance academic and personal success for first-year students.
If you are a freshman in the Class of 2012, you will receive more information about Welcome Week in the mail, as well as orientation and college specific information, in the coming months. Check out the preview of the Welcome Week Schedule!
If you are a faculty or staff member there are many ways for you to be involved in Welcome Week and/or with your college. To learn more on how Welcome Week may impact you and ways to be involved please visit the Faculty & Staff page.
Once your student has completed New Student Orientation it will be time to prepare for Welcome Week. To find out more on how your student will benefit from Welcome Week and what role you can play, please visit the Parents page.
If you are a local business, community organization or non-profit agency and would like to be involved in the Welcome Week program there are a number of ways you can do so. To find out how you can be involved please go to the Community Partners page.
