First Day will be held on the Ohio University Campus

February 11 - 13, 2010!

Beginning college is a milestone in your life. During the next four years you will meet life long friends, grow as an individual, be challenged, and learn valuable information that will shape your future and goals. First Day is an extraordinary opportunity unlike anything else. Just as you won't forget your collegiate experience, you certainly won't forget your First Day.
First Day is a collaboration between The College of Arts and Sciences and the Student Ambassadors at Ohio University. The purpose of this event is to give prospective students a realistic and candid look at the university. Even if you have visited Ohio University before, nothing compares to this program. If you haven't visited the university, First Day is a unique way to find out more about the college from a student's perspective.
First Day participants attend classes, stay in a residence hall, eat in the dining halls, and meet current students and faculty to experience first hand what college is really like. You are paired with a student mentor who answers your questions candidly. Your First Day experience can provide you valuable information about the social, academic, and cultural atmosphere at Ohio University.
Transportation is provided and all expenses are paid for First Day attendees. This is a unique opportunity for students to explore the campus, meet students and faculty, live in a dorm and attend O.U. classes and events.
