New Student Mondays: What to Do During Orientation

While each school does orientation differently, nearly every school does some kind of orientation program. It may be online; it may be for a day over the summer; it may be for a week in the fall, right before classes begin. No matter what it looks like, however, orientation is a critical part of making sure you start off on the right foot.

Fortunately, there are some basic rules to follow in order to make sure that you know how to make the most of orientation. Because who wants to be the meatball who doesn't know what's going on or where to go for help once the semester starts? Additionally, orientation is one of the best times to meet new people on your campus. Remember: Nearly everyone is new and trying to meet other people. Given that, trying to meet folks becomes a lot less awkward during orientation than it will be, say, two months from now.

Enjoy!
