Undergraduate Orientation
During Orientation, you will meet our deans, faculty members, student leaders, and members of the Office of Student Services staff. Each program will be designed to familiarize you with different aspects of college life, ranging from introductions to the faculty, strategies for managing your time, registration, course enrollment, unique programs at the School of Hotel Administration, academic and personal advising, career management, and employment opportunities in the Statler Hotel. We will also plan several opportunities, where you can relax and chat with faculty members, student leaders of the School of Hotel Administration’s clubs and organizations, and undergraduate advisors.
