New Student Orientation

Welcome to Kentucky Wesleyan College!

We are excited you are joining the Wesleyan family in fall 2025! Whether you are coming to Kentucky Wesleyan as a first-year student or a transfer student, New Student Orientation will ensure that your transition to Kentucky Wesleyan is smooth and enjoyable. Move-in for new students who are not fall athletes will occur on Friday, August 22nd from 9am-11am.

All new students (both first-years and transfers) are required to participate in New Student Orientation which directly follows move-in and is scheduled Friday, August 22 through Monday, August 25. Classes begin on Tuesday, August 26. Through participating in New Student Orientation, we hope that all new students will:

Enhance their understanding of college requirements and resources designed to support them as they strive for academic success.

Connect to the Kentucky Wesleyan community and build their confidence and excitement about their college choice.

Discover Kentucky Wesleyan College’s traditions and campus culture.

Understand the transitional issues (social and academic) they may encounter during their first year and how to manage them.

Intellectually engage with faculty, staff, administrators, and other students to strengthen their understanding of the academic expectations of the college experience.
