As an international student, your journey to Meredith includes more than just unpacking your bags.
Adjusting to life in a new country—and a new college—comes with unique challenges, and we’re here to support you every step of the way. That’s why we offer a special International Orientation just for you, taking place August 13–15, 2025, before the full campus-wide program begins.
This pre-orientation experience is designed to help you get familiar with U.S. culture, life at Meredith, and the resources available to you as you settle into your new home.
After International Orientation, undergraduate students will join the full New Student Orientation program from August 16–19, 2025, alongside their classmates. For full details, be sure to visit our International Students page.
