Fall Orientation

Each August, we are thrilled to welcome in a new class of students to IC through a comprehensive, inclusive, FUN orientation program! New first-year and transfer students will have the chance to connect with faculty and staff, get familiar with campus resources, learn about all of the opportunities available to you as an IC student, while also participating in exciting social events and winning prizes.
