Tentative Fall 2012 Orientation Schedule

Fall orientation marks the official beginning of your college adventure.

You will immediately be immersed into the student culture of Elizabethtown through a series of both academic and social events. Move in begins at 8:30 a.m. on Thursday, August 23* and fellow Blue Jays will be on hand to assist you in moving into your residence hall room.

After you check-in to your residence hall, please visit the orientation registration and check-in tent, which will be located on the terrace outside of Brossman Commons. Various information tables will be set-up throughout Brossman Commons for your convenience and we invite you to join us for a complimentary brunch in the Marketplace.
