We’re excited to welcome you to our university community. This page is designed to connect you with current students who can offer valuable insights, share their experiences, and answer any questions you might have as you prepare to join us.
During these virtual office hours, you’ll have the opportunity to speak with current students who are eager to help you learn more about life on campus, the academic experience, and what to expect as you begin your journey here. Whether you have questions about student life, academics, or simply want to hear firsthand experiences, we’re here to support you every step of the way.
