We’re excited to help new students get ready for life at UD. New Student Orientation in June is a required, full-day experience where students will:

  • Connect with other students, faculty and staff.
  • Register for first-semester courses.
  • Explore campus resources and ways to get involved.
  • And more!

As mentioned last month, the University recently updated our Common Academic Program curriculum as well as some program requirements.

Please encourage your students to explore our updated sample plans of study to understand the courses required for their major and help prepare for course registration at orientation in June. 

As a reminder, students can use our new online Transfer Credit Evaluation to see how prior earned credits will apply toward their degree requirements at UD.

Do you have students who are eager to engage with the UD community before fall classes start? Our summer programs offer confirmed students enriching experiences on campus with other future Flyers.
