Fall Orientation

Sunday, Aug. 25-Wednesday, Aug. 28

We are busy preparing for your arrival and are very excited to welcome you to Concordia! You'll spend your first four days involved in fun and informative activities planned just for you and other first-year and transfer students. If you are an international student, you"ll have an exciting International Student Orientation to attend earlier in the week.

Fall Orientation is designed with you in mind, providing you with an opportunity to meet many members of the Concordia community, learn important information about college life, make lasting friendships and adjust to your new life at Concordia.

From meeting your roommate and getting settled into your residence hall to participating in a variety of fun activities with your Orientation Club members and even joining hundreds of other Concordia students in a community-wide service-learning project, you"ll feel at home before you know it.

Some of the highlights of the week are meeting your classmates and fellow club members, the Welcome Show, Cabaret, getting your own Cobber beanie, meeting your Faculty Mentor and serving the community during Hands for Change. (See link below to the schedule in the Orientation Guidebook.)

All of these events are planned and coordinated by an Orientation Committee of seven students who loved their own Orientation experiences and know how important this week is for you.
