It makes the transition from high school to university so much easier, and so much fun. When you join us for Orientation Week, students and faculty help you get familiar with campus and you’ll make new friends even before classes begin. There are activities all week long, like the annual Rock Climb, noon hour barbeques and bands, free breakfast, movie nights and games!
