New Student Orientation
Monday, June 30, 2025
New Student Orientation for Fall 2025 new students and their families is something you won't want to miss! You'll have the opportunity to check out your living spaces, get to know faculty and staff, and meet new friends. Learn what resources are available to help you succeed during your time at SAU. During the day, you'll also begin to feel the pulse of the SAU community and how you'll become an integral part of it. We are excited to welcome you as a future SAU Cougar as you make SAU your new home. Go Cougs!
