Orientation To-Do Lists

The summer before your first quarter in the College will go by more quickly than you can imagine. As you prepare to begin your new academic journey with us, there is important information for you to review and several important tasks to complete. To ensure that you don't miss anything, we have developed the Orientation To-Do List for you to follow throughout the summer and first quarter. Some items may be able to be completed ahead of time. Others items will have specific windows of time during which you must complete the assigned task. 

The Orientation To-Do List includes three types of tasks.

• Mandatory: These tasks must be completed by the deadline listed in order for you to be prepared for Orientation and the start of classes.
• Strongly Recommended: These items will complement the required tasks and will help to ease your transition into the College.
• Encouraged: These items will assist in ensuring that you have the best possible start to your time in the College.
