First-Year and Transfer Orientation
Spring Orientation, which is for all new first year students, transfer students, and Dix Scholars, is a chance for you to meet your peers, learn about resources, and get acclimated to your new learning environment!
Spring Orientation Kick-off will be January 8, 2026 from 3:30-5:00pm via Zoom!
You'll get the chance to:
- Meet the orientation team
- Meet campus partners
- Get introduced to the Simmons technology you'll need on Day 1
- Hear about our Frequently Asked Questions (with answers!)
We'll also have other events planned throughout your first week such as Find Your Classroom (with pizza!) and an Ice Cream social where you'll get Simmons Swag and meet all of our campus partners. Check your Simmons email for more details!
