New Day Campus Students: Less Than a Week Left!

The Student Affairs Department is so excited to meet all of our new students, and their parents and guardians. We've been working hard all summer long to provide your student with the best learning experiences possible...and there are a LOT of experiences ahead!

Is your student just too excited to get on campus? Early check-in to the residence halls begins on Wednesday, August 14th from 6-10PM, but make sure your student has prior approval before they come to campus. Wondering what to bring to campus or have questions? Check out our website: Res Life FAQ

All other students who are up for waiting can check into their new halls on August 15th from 8-10AM. From there your student will get a chance to get their IDs, parking passes, and more. If you're hungry, free lunch will be served for all new students and families from 11:30-1PM. 

After lunch, you will get the opportunity to watch your student be welcomed into the Columbia College community with our traditional Pinning Ceremony. This will give everyone a chance to say their goodbyes before your student embarks on their new adventures!

Until you're able to see this in person, we wanted to show you our new additions to the Atkins-Holman Student Commons. We are looking forward to seeing you soon!
