New Student Orientation Program

The transition from high school to a university environment is a challenging, exciting, and sometimes difficult stage of life. In order to better understand the University of Connecticut at Waterbury, its services and the student's role in the learning process we have developed a New Student Orientation Program for incoming undergraduates.

Orientation will be held on Thursday, August 21, 2008 from 10:30 a.m. -- 5:00 p.m.

The Program is designed to:

familiarize you with the University of Connecticut Waterbury Campus
address the questions, concerns and anxieties that you may have regarding entry to the University
provide you with the opportunity to meet with your fellow entering classmates
have your UConn ID photo taken
Do all of the above at a less hectic time on campus

Participation in the program will help assist with your transition to UConn-Waterbury.

I strongly encourage you to participate in the New Student Orientation Program. Please complete the following form, whether you are planning to attend or not. If you have any questions, I can be contacted at Jim.Long@uconn.edu or at 203-236-9846.
