Freshmen Orientation (Mountaineer Days)
Mountaineers
Welcome, you have worked hard to get here, and we are excited that you are now a part of the Schreiner community.
The new student orientation (Mountaineer Days) is designed to help you get started on your journey by introducing you to the community. There are many opportunities for you to make your experience at Schreiner unique.
At orientation you will:
- Review your fall schedule
- Meet new friends
- Meet the staff and faculty that will work with you on your journey to graduation
- Receive information about the university from academics to student life on campus and everything in between
Our orientation is an overnight program. Students will stay on campus in one of the underclassmen residence halls. That evening we will have activities for students to enjoy and get a feel for student life on campus.
Orientation is also for families, while students attend their sessions family members will have their own sessions to attend. We also provide opportunities for families to meet other families. At Schreiner we know that family members are an important part of our community, and we want to be sure to provide an opportunity for you to meet each other.
