"Relax and enjoy the summer! College may be daunting, but you should not spend your summer in a sense of impending doom. Enjoy your summer and get good sleep, both of those will lead to you being positive and ready for AU when August rolls around!"

Nolan Cazzari, Orientation Chair
School of International Studies '26

Join us for an informative virtual session about the many resources on campus! Incoming students must attend one of three New Eagle Essentials held over the summer on Zoom. New Eagle Essentials will be held:

Tuesday, June 25, 6  - 9 p.m.

Wednesday, July 10, noon - 3 p.m.

Saturday, July 20, 9 a.m. - noon

Students can register for one of the sessions by logging into the Engage platform with your American University credentials and registering for the date they'd like to attend. Parents and families have a separate registration form they can find here.

We encourage students and families to use separate devices if attending the same webinar, and to make sure you've updated to the most recent version of the Zoom application before your session.

We're excited to announce our pre-orientation program Flight Ready!

Flight Ready! is AU’s online pre-orientation program that allows incoming students to get the support and the resources you need to navigate life as an AU Eagle. From June to July, Flight Ready! connects students to campus offices, the storied history of the University, their peers, and opportunities to get involved and make a difference.

This week, you'll be receiving an invitation to join the Canvas course, so keep an eye on your email! You can access Canvas through the AU Library's website. You can log in using your AU credentials.

💫 You'll be hearing from the First-Year Advising team tomorrow, June 4, regarding recommended course letters. Keep an eye on your AU emails for more information!

🏘️ Room selection begins this week and will end on Tuesday, June 11. You will select your room depending on your assigned timeslot. Visit your Housing Portal for more information, or to begin your housing application if you recently deposited. Once your application is submitted, you will receive a confirmation email to your AU email account, and you will be able to see your room selection timeslot on the homepage.

🤝 Registration for Venture to Volunteer ends this Friday, June 7 at 5:00 p.m. If you are in a Living Learning Community, there is now a modified schedule available for you to participate. For more information on V2V and where to register, click here.
