SOAR Experience and Dates: River Forest

The SOAR team has prepared an exciting program for you with lots of important information. 

The SOAR (Student Orientation, Advising and Registration) program is required for all incoming new students. You'll attend an orientation where you’ll learn about campus resources and connect with faculty and staff. During Advising & Registration, you'll meet with an academic advisor and register for classes.

Please make sure you are available for your entire SOAR session.
