Our Orientation program gives incoming Âé¶¹´«Ã½ the opportunity to see what EIU has to offer them!
Program folders: Incoming Âé¶¹´«Ã½ will receive an informational folder upon check-in at orientation. The materials in this folder come from campus facilities that are geared toward helping Âé¶¹´«Ã½ have a successful Orientation. Please contact NSFP if your office is interested in providing materials for the folders.
Panther Fair: Members of the EIU community will set up informational tables for Âé¶¹´«Ã½ and their guests during Orientation. Here, Âé¶¹´«Ã½ and their guests will have a chance to see what activities and resources are available through miscellaneous departments.
Our Welcome Weekend program is an excellent way to interact with new Âé¶¹´«Ã½!
Transfer Connections: Faculty members from different areas of campus will give a 30 minute presentation on the resources available to transfer Âé¶¹´«Ã½ through their department.
Welcome Picnic: Faculty members will have a chance to mingle and have lunch with Âé¶¹´«Ã½ who will be entering their colleges.
If you are a member of the Eastern Illinois University family and are looking to assist incoming Âé¶¹´«Ã½ by increasing their knowledge about your department or organization, please contact our office at nsfp@eiu.edu or 217-581-6435. New Student & Family Programs would be happy to work with you in many different capacities to spread knowledge to new Âé¶¹´«Ã½.
