Whether you're a new student joining us for the first time, a student joining us from another institution or Penn State campus, or a student returning to University Park, we're excited to welcome you to campus soon!

Spring Welcome kicks off the spring semester with a number of programs, events, and activities to welcome you (or welcome you back) to campus. Each program is optional, but you’re encouraged to participate in each and every one that interests you. At these events, you’ll have to opportunity to:

• Learn how to navigate campus
• Gain a sense of belonging here at Penn State University Park
• Discover academic and co-curricular engagement opportunities
• Meet other new and returning students and make new friends

Spring Welcome 2024 will begin the weekend prior to the start of classes. A full schedule of events will be available in December 2023.
