January 21-24, 2014: Spring Orientation – All New Students
Students at Orientation Welcome all new students (spring transfers are required) for the spring semester! Please remember that spring orientation is required and your three daylong program will prepare you for both academic and student life at FIT and in New York City. All new students will receive a communication from the Dean of Students inviting them to orientation.

The following is a snapshot of your schedule of the 2014 spring orientation. We look forward to seeing everyone. Families, please remember to attend one of the special welcome sessions led by the Dean of Students at FIT.

Note that housing move-in for new students occurs the day prior to spring orientation. For more information, please visit the Residential Life move-in web page at www.fitnyc.edu/move-in.
