Orientation

 

Orientation is an important step in the process of becoming a St. Scholastica student. During Orientation students register for classes, meet future peers and faculty, become familiar with the campus, and have questions answered.

A social event and an introduction to St. Scholastica

Orientation is a social event with some formal presentations and introductions. The presentations and introductions are kept to a minimum so you can meet and enjoy the company of other transfer students.

You will be introduced to the 'Transfer Student Advisor' and in addition, learn about what it means to be a student at CSS through a presentation on 'Cor et Anima,' a statement of student values at the College. Previous transfer students had a good time and thought the event worth attending.
