Important Information

Dates and Participation

Students participate in one of three sessions:

  • June 22nd & 23rd
  • June 27th & 28th
  • June 29th & 30th

You will be assigned to a session, and this information will be mailed to you. Please register for your assigned session, or if you are not available on that date, request an alternate (space permitting.) Registration will be available after you receive the session information that is mailed to you.

Check-in on Day One for your Overnight Stay

Check in at Goodman Hall (#18 on campus map) between 8:00 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. All students are required to stay in the Goodman Residence Hall. For your overnight stay, you will be assigned a roommate. This is a good way to meet other new University of the Sciences students.
