Key dates
Your summer experience kicks off with new student orientation and takes you through your first week on campus.
June - August: New Student Orientation sessions
The New Student Orientation program helps ease the transition to college for incoming students and their parents and supporters. Students get to know campus, meet classmates and prepare for a great first year at the University. Orientation is required for all first-year students, and optional but highly recommended for new transfer students. Parents and other supporters are invited to participate in a family orientation program that takes place at the same time.
August 15-18: Opening Weekend
Move into your residence hall. Attend Opening Ceremony and other events on and off campus. Here's your chance to connect with other students and get to know your community.
August 17-22: NevadaFIT and TransferFIT
NevadaFIT is a required one-credit college-based camp that introduces you to the rigors of academic life. TransferFIT is an optional three-credit course for transfer students that runs alongside NevadaFIT but extends virtually into the fall semester.
August 26 - October 8: Wolf Pack Welcome
