All new students are encouraged to participate in the orientation program. The freshmen orientation program begins on the Thursday before school starts in the fall. That’s the day you move into the residence hall, get to know your fellow classmates and begin your journey as a “Saint”!

New transfer students also have an orientation on the Monday before school starts in the fall and spring semesters. Transfer students learn about services offered at the University, discover the Non-Traditional Student Club, and meet other new transfer students. Often students organize car pools and study groups during this orientation session.
