Welcome Week

Start the semester off right. Move in and check in quickly and safely with the help of our student and staff crew. Relax to a new student and guest lunch. Then, dive into events, learn more about resources or take care of last-minute needs.

Schedule

Welcome Week will take place August 14 - 18, 2024

New student (on campus, off campus, and commuter) move-in and check-in will be Wednesday, August 14.

Welcome Week is a time for all new students to have fun, learn more about campus resources, and accomplish a few tasks before the first day of class. As a new student, you have a series of required sessions and tasks that you must complete before the first day of class.  You can learn about those requirements and craft your schedule for your Welcome Week experience by RSVPing to events via the Engage platform. Engage will be your one-stop shop for getting involved in campus life and student organizations, and finding out about campus events and information.    

Additional details can be found here and on Engage closer to the date. New students will receive an email when it is time to craft their Welcome Week schedule. 

Who can help me?

Questions before you arrive? Contact the Office of Student Engagement. Penn College students, faculty, and staff are on campus throughout the week to help you with all of your questions. And they will make move-in a snap.
