Student Experience

Close to 1,700 members of the Class of 2025 and new transfer students gathered with their families and friends Under the Oaks on Saturday to participate in this university tradition.

The special event is planned for members of the Class of 2024, which due to the pandemic were not able to enjoy the traditional welcome to campus most first-year students receive.

The Elon University community welcomed the 1,600 students from the Class of 2025 and nearly 80 transfer students with open arms as these newest Elon students moved into their new homes.

Created as Elon prepared to welcome its inaugural cohort of nursing students, the center will offer an array of capabilities and training to over 250 students in the School of Health Sciences.

In her annual video message, President Connie Ledoux Book talks about the year ahead and the university's future plans.

Throughout Fall Semester, Vice President for Student Life Jon Dooley is providing regular email update messages to keep students and parents informed about the efforts for a healthy semester.

The site is a hub for resources, news and information related to the division's work, which per its vision is “to create a community where people strive to dismantle oppression and where individuals flourish.”

E-Connect, a collaborative effort between the School of Health Sciences, Information Technology, and Teaching and Learning Technologies, will put an Apple iPad in the hands of every nursing student this fall.

The website and Facebook page for New Student Programs at Elon provide students and their families with an overview of events and helpful tips as the academic year prepares to begin. Stay tuned to Today at Elon for more information about orientation in the days to come.

Leaders from both institutions on Friday, Aug. 13, signed a memorandum of understanding that will pave the way for students and faculty exchange programs and research collaborations.
