We're so excited that you are joining the Whitman community! Our orientation program is designed to teach you how to navigate the physical, social and academic spaces here at Whitman. Our pre-orientation Immersions experiences, move-in activities, parent and family events, and other programs will help you feel at home, make new friends and get prepared for the best four years of your life (so far).
Adjusting to a college out of your home country can be a monumental task. Whitman College provides a special orientation program for our international students to help smooth your adjustment between home and college. International Student Orientation is mandatory for all incoming international students and is free of charge. Explore our orientation program and how International Student and Scholar Services can help you feel at home in Walla Walla.
Just as we plan New Student Orientation events to help our students acclimate to the campus, we have also planned an orientation program to help families make this transition. We want you to know that your child is in good hands for the next four years. Our Family Orientation provides parents and families with the tools they need to help their student be successful at Whitman College.
