Advice for students Be prepared.
Stay overnight.
Check out the academic advising worksheet and talk to your family about expectations for the first semester. You’ll meet one-on-one with an academic advisor during orientation, so family input is important before orientation.
We highly suggest using orientation to get a feel for living on-campus. Even if you’re commuting to campus during the year, stay overnight and hang out with new friends and our student leaders. It’s included in the fee for orientation!
Get to know your Welcome Team Leader.
Keep in touch.
Each student will be assigned a leader and small group during orientation. Your leader is a great resource during your time at Indiana State. You’ll also meet several new friends in this process.
Exchange phone numbers, email, or social media sites with your new friends and with our leaders. You’ll have some questions after orientation and we’re all here to help. Also, check MyISU Portal often and your Sycamore Email for notifications from your academic advisor.
