New Student Orientation
New Student Orientation for the 2023-24 school year is scheduled for August 21–25. New Student Orientation is required for all new students.
Pre-Orientation Programs
Designed to provide a unique, challenging, and fun transition to life at ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½, students can select from an assortment of pre-orientation programs that run June–August. These allow students to immerse themselves in the ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ community prior to the start of the academic year.
Health & Counseling
ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½'s Center for Student Health and Well-Being is dedicated to the physical, emotional and mental well being of every student.
Medical forms must be completed and submitted by all incoming ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ students.
Each student must have medical insurance, either through a private insurance company plan or the through the college's health insurance plan. Students that already have health insurance can opt-out of the college's health insurance by completing a waiver.
Student Athletes
Students who intend to participate on a ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ Varsity Athletic Team need to register with the NCAA Eligibility Center. This NCAA-driven process must be completed before a student-athlete reports to campus.
New student athletes must complete sports medical forms, independent of the college's Health Center medical forms.
In mid-July each known ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ student-athlete will receive an email containing links and instructions for completing all necessary NCAA and ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ compliance forms.
