| Move-in Day:
The Orientation and Community Living staffs will be working together on move-in day to provide all the information that you will need. Look for signs that will direct you. As a part of your check-in, you will receive a schedule of the events for the first few days. Students will have a week and a half of activities, known as Welcome Week, to keep them occupied as they adjust to new college life.
Rest assured, we will not leave you floundering! Every member of our team will be able to answer your questions and/or direct you to someone who can address any concerns you may have. Learn how to use the most important resource at MUW -- our people!
For example, you'll meet Orientation Leaders, who are upperclassmen who will help you move in, answer questions and help get you acclimated to MUW. Your student's Orientation Group will consist of other students, led by an Orientation Leader. Here, they will learn about each other and the campus.
