Congratulations and welcome to the John Carroll University Class of 2026! John Carroll is a Jesuit Catholic institution filled with many traditions, one of which is our two-day orientation program for first-year students. We look forward to welcoming our newest members of the JCU community, as orientation is a unique opportunity for students and families to get acquainted with John Carroll. Students will learn important information about the JCU experience and meet fellow classmates as well as older JCU students. This will allow them to see John Carroll in a whole new light, learning what to expect both socially and academically. Parents can also benefit from the program, whether this is the first or last child going to college, by engaging with several University administrators and learning more about the resources available at JCU. Participating in the orientation program will give students a head start on a successful, enjoyable college experience, laying the foundation for a smoother, less hectic transition in August. We strongly encourage both students and parents to start your John Carroll experience by taking advantage of all it has to offer. Enjoy the rest of your senior year, and we look forward to seeing you this summer! Student Fee The New Student Orientation fee will be $325 per student. This fee covers advising and registration fees, student staffing, Streak Week activities in August, and other program costs (for all students) as well as meals for the student and a guest during the on-campus experience and housing for the student. The orientation fee will appear on your fall tuition bill, which will be mailed to you in July. The 2022 orientation dates for incoming first-year and transfer students are: Two-day, on-campus sessions with an overnight stay:
Note: Deadlines to register only apply if spaces still remain for a session, as sessions may fill up earlier than the posted deadline. If a session does not appear as an option when you log in to your JCU Gateway to register, that session is no longer available because the session either has reached its capacity or the deadline to register has passed. Transfer Registration Dates
*All students who participate in a summer Transfer Registration Day are automatically registered to attend the Transfer Transition Day on Friday, August 26. Cookie Settings
