Graduate Student Orientation will take place at our Bristol Campus this year. We welcome students in all programs to attend orientation - whether your home base is Bristol, Providence, or remote!

If your program is 100% online or low-residency and you are not able to make it to campus, please register virtually. We want you to feel welcome to attend in person if it works with your schedule though, so that you can see campus and meet other students and faculty in your program.

In-Person Outline:

2pm: Check-in at Bristol Campus Library
3pm: Program-specific breakout rooms in Academic Buildings
4pm: Graduate Student Reception at Bristol Campus Library (drinks and snacks provided!)

Virtual Makeup Date:

Fill out this form and select "Virtual Option" if you have a conflict with the in-person orientation scheduled above.
