On Arrival
When you arrive on campus, you will check in at the Holland Plaza. Students and families should plan to spend the majority of the day apart. Use the agenda on the home screen to track your day. Clicking the map-pin icon will take you to the campus map.
ID Cards
Students will be taking pictures and receiving their student ID cards during the orientation day, so come prepared with your best smile! Students will receive a text message when their ID Card is ready for pick up at the Campus Store on the second floor of the Gardner Student Center. Students should wait until orientation is over to pick up their ID Card. Some cards may not be printed by the end of the orientation day, but can be picked up once ready. NOTE: Students will not be allowed to wear sunglasses or hats during their photo.
Lunch
Lunch is provided to students and families during orientation. Lunch options are either a Chick-Fil-A sandwich or vegetarian salad. If you have more specific dietary restrictions, we encourage you to bring your lunch.
