There’s a lot to do this week. Between finding out where your classes are, meeting your Fall Orientation group and learning all about university life, things can get a little crazy! Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Academic Orientation Day is designed to make sure that you know everything about your Faculty and Department here at Carleton. You’ll get to meet your classmates and professors, and find out more about your degree. This is a fun day packed full of information to help you to start your program off on the right foot!
Please note that the time of your academic orientation session is program dependent and will occur during a portion of the timeframe. We encourage you to check the schedule on the Academic Orientation Day website.
