This program is specifically for students who are coming to Madonna right from high
school or home school environments. Students coming to Madonna University directly
from high school are part of our First-Year Experience program, which guides them
through a series of events intended to ease the transition to the University. Students
are required to attend an orientation program during the summer prior to starting
at the institution.
During orientation, you will register for your Fall 2019 classes, attend sessions
that familiarize you with Madonna’s campus and provide a chance to meet other new
students, faculty, and staff. FYE Peer Mentors (students who have successfully completed
at least one year at Madonna already) will spend the day with you and lead you through
the program. At orientation, you also will be introduced to our wide range of academic,
social, and service-learning opportunities. You also will learn about other First-Year
events and programs designed to answer your questions and help you achieve academic
success.
As you begin this new chapter of your life, the support of loved ones can help ensure
your success. Therefore, we invite and strongly encourage you to bring your parent(s),
a family member, or other supporting adult to the orientation program. Your parents/guests
will follow a separate program throughout the day.
