Arrival to Campus
- Address: Our campus is located at 300 College Park Ave., Dayton, Ohio. Once you arrive on campus, proceed to C Lot, where you’ll park for the day.
- Please plan for additional travel time, as various events are taking place on and around campus, in addition to ongoing construction on Interstate 75, which may result in delays.
- Parking in Lot C: From the intersection of Brown Street and East Stewart Street, head south on Brown Street to Irving Avenue. Turn left onto Irving Avenue. Turn left at Evanston Avenue and follow orientation signage to C Lot, which will be on the left just past the RecPlex and across from Marianist Hall. Stop at the Visitor and Parking Information Center at the entrance to C Lot to receive your parking pass.
Submit a Transfer Credit Evaluation
If you haven't already, use our online Transfer Credit Evaluation to instantly receive a credit audit that tells you how any prior-earned college credits (through dual enrollment or exams) will apply to your degree. It may be helpful to save a PDF of your results that you can access from your phone, or bring a printed copy to orientation. Learn more about transfer and exam credits here.
How to Discuss a Major Change
If you're thinking about changing your major, please reach out to the recruitment and admission staff as soon as possible — don't wait until orientation day when you're on campus as major changes could impact your academic unit meeting at orientation. This helps to ensure a smooth experience and avoid confusion on a busy and information-filled orientation day!
