Freshman getting started 2011 is a two-day program in which new, first-year students, admitted for the fall 2011 semester, are invited to campus for advisement and registration. Program activities begin on Day One at 8:30 a.m. and include a welcome to the University, information on housing, financial aid, student affairs presentations, and math placement testing for students. Day Two begins at 8 a.m. and consists of language placement testing, individual academic advisement and registration, and obtaining a student ID. There is a separate program for families that runs simultaneously. The families receive information pertinent to sending a student to college. The program concludes around noon on Day Two.
