Fall 2008 Orientation Weekend
 

It won't be long and you will begin your college adventure at Huntington University! New Student Orientation begins Friday, August 22 and continues through Sunday, August 24.  This weekend will give you the opportunity to meet faculty, staff and other students as well as help you adjust academically, personally, socially and spiritually to college life.

 

Registration is from 12:00 noon - 5:00 p.m. Friday, August 22, 2008 in the Merillat Centre for the Arts. Following check-in you will be directed to your residence hall and  permitted to move into your room (if you are living on campus). Orientation officially begins with a New Student Dedication Service at 6:30 p.m. in the MCA Auditorium. Due to limited seating, we ask each student to bring no more than 2 guests to this service Friday evening.
