We offer programs that draw together new and returning students, deepening their connection to KU’s campus and the Jayhawk community.
Orientation
Admitted students enroll in classes, meet new and established Jayhawks, and learn the ins and outs of KU life.

Our campuswide kickoff celebrates the new year with several days of live events, block parties, and community meetings.
