Quoted text: “Orientation allowed me to get familiar with the campus and its people... I think having a fun and enjoyable start is important for me to stay motivated throughout the year and know the resources available to me.”
Quoted text: “I think orientation definitely helped me find my way around campus and make many new friends. I learned a lot of things about requirements at uoft and it became really useful for me so I’m really glad.“
Quoted Text: “The orientation help give me a sense of what it is like to be a UTM student and what it takes to be a good person in the future. It gave me positive vibes going into the academic year and hope I can achieve.”
Quoted text: “Personally, Orientation made me feel more comfortable on campus. Meeting other students reminded me that I’m not the only one adjusting, and it was nice to start building some connections early on.”
Quoted Text: “My Orientation experience was successful and satisfactory, the friends I have made are from my program... This is what I would consider my biggest success in Orientation as it was a goal of mine to find community. I do not believe I would be nearly as confident as I am right now if not for Orientation...”
Quoted Text: “I was initially very intimidated by the change from high school to university but once I saw the willingness of the upper year students to help, I felt more comfortable in the support available.”
