Welcome New Students!

We are thrilled that you have chosen to attend Truman State University!  Are you ready to start the journey of becoming a bulldog?

An important step in preparing for your arrival as a new Truman student is to participate in one of eight Summer Orientation Sessions.  During Summer Orientation, you will develop your fall schedule of classes with the assistance of an academic advisor.  In addition, you will meet at least one faculty member in your chosen discipline and begin to make friends with other students who will make up Truman's graduating class of 2016.  Attending Summer Orientation is required of all new first-year students and there is no additional fee.  Parents are also invited to participate in the parent program during Orientation.  Each session will begin with registration from 8:30 a.m. until 9:30 a.m. with required activities ending at 3:45 p.m.

Watch your mail during March for information about preparing for Summer Orientation.  Dates will fill quickly so don't delay in choosing your summer orientation session preference.

Meet your Orientation Leaders!
