We are excited you are joining the Elizabethtown College community! Orientation marks the official beginning of your college adventure--and is a comprehensive program that assists new students in making successful transitions, academically and socially, into the College community.

Our two-part orientation program begins in June with a one-day summer orientation experience and concludes with a fall orientation, in August, where all first-year students move in to campus four days before classes start. Orientation continues throughout the fall semester through the coordinated efforts of Student Life and Academics.
