We are delighted to be a part of your JMU journey!
Whether this is your first college adventure or you are joining us with some classes under your belt, we are here to help you get started. The Orientation and Transition experience is laid out in three phases to prepare you for your arrival at JMU. Learn more about each phase below.
The One Book Experience
The One Book Experience is broken down into two parts; the New Student Checklist and The One Book publication. Both of these resources are now available!
Summer Orientation
Summer Orientation is a one day, on-campus or virtual, event that assists students in their transition to JMU! During the day students will meet with an Orientation Peer Adviser (OPA), learn about campus resources and academic expectations at JMU.
