New Student Orientation Schedules
Come prepared.
Orientation is a busy time for incoming students. Between moving into your new home and acclimating yourself to our campus life, it's easy to feel overwhelmed.
Schedules are also available in the Orientation area of the W&M Mobile app. Download the app and select the New Students & Families experience to access information including move-in maps and schedules, key app features including Tribe Card, Transit and Academic Tools, and to receive important notifications and updates from the Student Transition Engagement Programs office.
Class of 2028 New StudentsOur orientation schedule is the best of all worlds: it's academic, it's social, and it's unique — just like our university. Community is a big part of how we do orientation and you go through the experience alongside those in your residential community. This means that while everyone gains exposure to the same content and information, each residence hall will have its own unique schedule of events. Each community's New Student Orientation schedule will be posted here by late July. In the interim, check out this year's Overview Schedule (available July 1). For new residential students, these activities will begin the evening of your move-in appointment on Friday, August 23. New commuter students should plan to participate beginning the morning of Friday, August 24 through Tuesday, August 27. |
Transfer, Exchange & Joint Degree Programme HOST StudentsTailored to you being an experienced student, your orientation schedules look different from the traditional first-time-in-college freshman experience... but includes all of the great opportunities to meet one another and learn about our community's expectations and resources. Each community's New Student Orientation schedule will be posted here by late July. In the interim, check out this year's Overview Schedule (available July 1) For new residential students, these activities will begin the evening of your move-in appointment on Friday, August 23.
