Nichols College Summer Orientation - Class of 2023

Nichols College and the Student Life Department are preparing for the arrival of the Class of 2023! We have started to plan your summer orientation, and want to give you some details.

The Nichols College Orientation program is an overnight, one and a half day program that takes place in June 2019. We have designed a schedule to acclimate you to Nichols College in the best way possible.

We have a wide range of activities planned for you to get familiar with new classmates, Nichols College and all the opportunities awaiting you "on the Hill."
