Convocation is the traditional ceremony in higher education to begin the academic year, and features stirring congregational singing, ensemble music and a ceremonial entry and exit of the faculty and administration in full regalia. 

The first day of classes! 

The last day to register or add a class

C.O.R.E.--Character, Opportunity, Responsibility and Eternity is the theme of our freshman orientation. It's a full five days of breakout sessions, fun, meeting your classmates, moving in, adjusting to the college environment, figuring out your class schedule, career counseling, and making your residence hall room feel like home. You'll learn how to succeed when taking exams, deal with stress, understand the nuances of academic integrity and much more.

Learning takes place in a three-week session prior to the beginning of the freshman year and provides developmental learning support in the areas of math, reading, and English.  

The Summer Bridge program runs July 31 through August 16.
