Orientation

Mandatory general orientation sessions take place twice a year: once in the fall for winter break, spring break, and spring semester participants and once in the spring for summer, fall and academic year participants.  Your program leader may schedule one or more additional on-campus orientation meetings during the semester prior to your departure.  You will be notified by e-mail once these meetings are scheduled.  Informational orientation packets will be provided and a wide range of topics pertinent to your program will be discussed. 

Attendance for MSU students is required and your questions are expected and welcomed.  Non-MSU students who are unable to attend orientation meetings will receive the pertinent materials by U.S. mail.
