New Student Move-In and Week of Welcome Orientation

3-Day Event August 14-16, 2020

For 2020, Orientation will begin on the Friday before classes start. During your Weekend of Welcome, you will get to know the E&H campus — and your future classmates — over three fun-filled, entertaining, and informative days. For 2020, we will be designing events to be a blend of in-person and virtual sessions to meet guidelines for social distancing and safety.

Students living on campus who did not move in early for sports or other activities should plan to arrive on Friday, August 14, 2020. We will be staggering student arrivals; watch for emails from the Orientation and Residence Life offices with a specific time for your check-in (if you are traveling from a long distance or can’t arrive on Friday, please contact us, and we will work with you to try to coordinate a time based on your needs). We will hold a separate check-in process for commuters.

The Weekend of Welcome is intended for first-year students and transfers, for residential students and commuters. Please clear your schedule so you can be fully involved in all three days of Orientation, Friday, August 14, through Sunday, August 16, 2020. The first day of classes will be Monday, August 17, 2020.
