In addition to reviewing your program-specific information below, you must also review the general Accepted Students page for information that applies to all programs. Please be sure to check your Precollege Portal or Family Portal periodically to ensure all available forms are completed.

Before you start
Attend an orientation
Student and their parent/guardian will receive information regarding an on-campus orientation for the session(s) in which they are enrolled, during which Precollege staff will share important information and host an optional campus tour.
- For students in Three-week Session 2 and the Six-week Session: Saturday, June 20, 2026 | 1:00 p.m. | Statler Hall 196
- For students in Three-week Session 3: Saturday, July 11, 2026 | 1:00 p.m. | Statler Hall 196
Your course(s) will appear in the Student Center about 7 to 10 days before your class starts. (Note: If you check your course in the Student Center, you’ll notice there’s a “hold” on your account. This simply indicates that if you want to make a course change, you must contact the Precollege Studies office.)
While you are here
During the program, students will be invited to a lunch with Precollege staff to discuss academics, ask questions, and connect with other commuter students. Students enrolled in courses happening June 22 – July 31 can attend any activity while their class is actively in session, and they will be able to sign up for these events after Orientation.
