August Orientation

August Orientation is our largest orientation of the year. This four-day experience is required for all first-time, incoming Cedar Crest students and is always scheduled on the four days leading up to the first day of classes for the fall semester. Orientation is a jam-packed experience designed to highlight everything Cedar Crest College has to offer.

During Orientation STUDENTS will:

• Meet their classmates, academic advisor, and even some professors!
• Learn their way around campus and engage with the local community
• Make tons of new friends
• HAVE A BLAST!

During Orientation PARENTS AND FAMILIES will:

• Learn about what the First Year at college will look like for you and your student
• Learn ways to support your student as they transition into college
• Meet Faculty, Staff, and Administrators that your student will engage with during their first year
• Have a chance to ask any questions
• Gain peace of mind that you are making the right choice for your First-Year Student!

All first-time incoming students are required to attend August Orientation from 8/20/20-8/23/20. Any student who is transferring into Cedar Crest College can opt into August Orientation from 8/20/20-8/23/20, but attendance is not mandatory. International students are required to attend International Student Orientation on 8/18/20 and 8/19/20 and are strongly encouraged to attend traditional orientation as well.
