Join us for New Student Orientation Fall 2021.
AlI first-time Dominican students are expected to attend Orientation August 19-22, following Move-In Day. This includes first-year, transfer, international/study-abroad, and ADC students.
Orientation is designed to help you get to know your fellow students, become more familiar with the campus, learn about Dominican history and traditions, and most importantly, have a great start to your college experience.
The components of Orientation will help you learn how to take care of the "business" of being a student, and you also have an opportunity to have fun and meet your fellow Penguins.
