Last chance for new students to apply for the Jumpstart Program!

By Mish Lenhart, June 26, 2022

Do you know any incoming first-year or transfer students who are looking for a chance to move in early, to explore the local community, learn about resources on campus, and meet new friends before Orientation begins? If so, we have a fantastic opportunity for them!

Jumpstart is a great way to start the Ithaca College experience: move in early, make friends, and see some of the gems that the Ithaca area has to offer! Applications are due on Friday, July 1, and all applicants will be notified of their selection status on Monday, July 11.

If you are a current student, faculty, or staff member who would like to encourage new students to apply for this special experience, please send them the link: https://www.ithaca.edu/jumpstart-program

There is no cost for new students to participate in this program, but there is a simple application process and students must be accepted into the program to participate. All accepted Jumpstart participants will get to move in to their residence hall rooms on Sunday, August 14, and start connecting with new friends that evening!
