Dean's Welcome
Greetings!
Pre-Orientation
for all incoming international students begins on Monday, September 17th,
and the main Orientation for all incoming students begins on Sunday,
September
23th. Our orientation activities are designed
to provide a broad overview of the Caltech culture, services, resources,
and the various national, cultural, social, political, and sports organizations
available to you.
The current
schedule of Orientation
events is updated frequently, so be sure to check often for the latest
updates. All new students are required to attend the Dean’s
Welcome and Check-In on September
23th, where you will obtain
a finalized printed schedule for the week. If you are unable to
attend on this date for any reason, please send an email
letting us know when you will be arriving on campus. Daily reminders
of the events will also be posted in campus housing and the GSC message
board outside the Red Door Café.
If you have any questions
about the orientation activities or regarding your arrival on campus,
don’t hesitate to contact the Graduate Office by telephone (626)
395-6346 or by email.
I look forward to personally
welcoming you to the Caltech community!
Michael R. Hoffmann
Dean of Graduate Studies
