Incoming Students

If you are an incoming transfer or first-year student, we consider your requests while honoring the mission of what a residential campus intends to teach you as an emerging adult. Community Advisors specific to first-year students are trained to help you find community, answer your questions, and help navigate the campus.

Never shared a room? We can help with communication tools and life skills to smooth the transition. If you are honest with your living style (I'm a night owl / I'm a little messy / I'm very neat / I need quiet at certain hours) we can help connect you with the right living situation to supplement your learning experience.
