Welcome to Wesleyan!

New students at Wesleyan must plan to attend our orientation session for new students. Orientation is a VERY important part of your start at Wesleyan.

How to Register for Summer Orientation & What to Expect When You Arrive:
It's easy to register for Summer Orientation at Wesleyan. Simply mark your calendar (and your family’s calendar) for three days June 25-27, and go online to register using the online RSVP form  to let us know to expect you. You'll be staying on campus and your family can stay in one of the hotels we recommend in the area. (International Students please see below.)

Once you've done that, you'll probably be wondering: What happens at Summer Orientation anyway? You’ll meet your faculty advisor, register for your fall classes, get to know your way around campus, and start making friends with other new students as well as our enthusiastic, knowledgeable orientation staff.  You’ll move into your residence hall for good on August 15 at the start of Fall Orientation, which everyone attends together. Classes for the fall 2009 semester begin on August 19.


International Students, We’re at Your Service!
International Students: please note that instead of attending the Summer Orientation, you will be able to move into your residence hall August 10-11, 2009 in time for a special International Orientation August 12 - 15, 2009.  Wesleyan offers a variety of student services specifically designed to help our international students. You can get assistance with visa or immigration issues as well as move into the residence hall early in time to participate in a special orientation program (August 12 – 15) designed to ease your transition to life at Wesleyan. You’ll then be ready to meet all of the other new students coming to Wesleyan during our Fall Orientation, which everyone attends together. Classes for the fall 2009 semester begin on August 19.
