We're so excited to get to know you during "First Bite" Orientation!
Welcome, new Sharks!
Orientation is the official start of your Simmons journey

In June, we are excited to welcome new students and their families for a one-day Orientation (June 16 or 17). In the Fall, we’ll kick off Orientation on Friday, August 29th and it will run through Monday Sept. 1.
