Orientation for New Students
What to Expect at Summer Orientation
Welcome to Baldwin Wallace's summer orientation for new Yellow Jackets and their families — an important first step in your transition to college.
Designed for new students beginning at BW in fall 2027, this one-day, on-campus experience provides essential information about academics, financial aid, campus resources, and college life, while offering opportunities to meet faculty, staff, and fellow students.
Families participate in concurrent programming that highlights how to support your student’s transition and better understand the parent and family role in the BW experience. Throughout the day, both students and families can connect with advisors, explore campus, and build confidence heading into the fall semester.
