Admitted Ferris State University students ready to begin classes this fall for the 2023-24 academic year can still be a Bulldog. Ferris State is hosting a late orientation session from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 24, in the David L. Eisler Center.

Assistant Director of Orientation Emily Hicks said Ferris State is ready to welcome new and transfer students admitted to the university for a brief and direct morning schedule.

“We are excited to connect with this group of incoming Bulldogs,” Hicks said. “We have 170 students registered for the event, and we would welcome those still undecided on their fall study plans to complete the admissions process and join us.”

The late-orientation agenda allows students who have applied and been admitted to meet university departments, financial aid experts and students who can offer their perspectives on life in the Ferris State community.

Ferris State welcomed approximately 1,600 orientation participants this summer in June and July.

Ferris State’s first day of classes for the Fall 2023 semester is Monday, Aug. 28.
