Before You Arrive
Welcome to your W&M journey!
No matter what your path looked like to get here, we warmly welcome you to the W&M community!
Prior to your campus arrival, we invite you to join us at event that that celebrate your decision, introduce you to key community members, and allow you the opportunity to begin making connections!
Events offered to incoming classmates - and often their families - give students a chance to begin building the strong community that will support them throughout their William & Mary journey.
Registration at events is usually required, unless otherwise noted. We encourage students to join us at events, virtual or in-person, as frequently as your schedules allow.
Gathering opportunities for Fall 2026 New Students will be launched soon!
