Important Information for Students
Dates and Participation
Students participate in one of three sessions:
- June 24th & 25th

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.)
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.
