The summer 2024 first year summer planning calendar is designed to help first year (freshmen) remain organized as they prepare to begin classes in the fall.
We highly recommend that you keep yourself on this schedule in preparing to start your first year at Salem State University. Please note some programs and requirements are for first year students only (not transfer students). For program-specific activities, transfer students should contact the orientation office or the first year experience office with specific questions.
Tips
- Students are encouraged not to wait until the deadline to complete the task, the earlier you complete it, the better.
- Many of these calendar items will assist you in completing the Move-In Policy (if you are living on campus): (1) having your bill settled and (2) your immunizations up-to-date and approved in advance of move-in.
- Plan your summer now as orientation and welcome week (activities prior to the first day of classes) are mandatory.
- More information about calendar details can be found on the New Students webpage or “Ask the Viking” by using the search bar.
- All university business is managed through your Salem State email and Navigator account. It is important to check these accounts on a regular basis.
