SAVE the DATE!
What a time it will be to have our campus community back together, safe and healthy! Welcome Week 2022 will offer a variety of in-person and virtual events to kick off the 2022-2023 academic year.
New students will experience a facilitated series of events beginning on August 27 through the first day of classes. Events will continue throughout the weekend and through the first few weeks of school. Don't miss out!
Welcome Week is the time to meet new friends, connect with faculty and staff, learn your way around campus, and settle in for a great semester.
Be sure to bookmark the
WELCOME WEEK site for updated event information!
As we prepare to welcome our new and returning retrievers to campus - the physical space, the community, and our virtual environments - be sure to check back to this page and welcomeweek.umbc.edu for updates and information.
As a new student, you can expect outreach from current students, faculty, and staff; information on virtual group activities; suggested transition workshops, videos, modules, and resources; and opportunities to meet other new students.
In the meantime, feel free to send any questions or concerns to
welcomeweek@umbc.edu and a Campus Life staff member will get back with you as soon as possible!
