  • Supporting your transition to both academic and co-curricular life at Dartmouth is a priority for New Student Orientation. Faculty, staff, student mentors, and community members are working together to create an exciting and informative program to help support that transition. Our commitment to celebrating the many paths you have taken to get to Dartmouth can be seen throughout all of the programming. We are so excited to welcome you to our community! During New Student Orientation, you will have an opportunity to: Learn about the campus, our community, and each other with space for self-care, wellbeing, focus, and reflection. Begin to find and establish an identity within the Dartmouth community. Meet each other and have fun! Learn about the many resources available to you. Connect with faculty, upper-level students, and staff. Elect fall term courses, supported by programs and advising beforehand. Explore the variety of ways you can become involved on campus. Additionally – and with equal importance – we expect that you will learn about your rights and responsibilities as a member of the Dartmouth community. A simple introduction to those rights and responsibilities is this: you have the right to learn, grow, and experiment here. You also have the responsibility to engage in these pursuits in a way that does not come at the cost of others. By engaging with the New Student Orientation online Canvas site* over the summer and then the in-person New Student Orientation programs with your new classmates and Orientation Leaders, you will learn – together – what it means to be a member of our community and contribute to what is best about Dartmouth. And soon you, too, will be a very important part of “what is best about Dartmouth.” * All incoming students will be invited to the New Student Orientation Canvas site in early June! Canvas is Dartmouth's learning management system - you will use it often as a student.
