Explore! Offerings
Explore! is Washington College's signature orientation program. Experiences are designed around a special interest area and offer dynamic, experiential activities to help you acclimate to Washington College and connect with a small group of like-minded peers. Each experience is unique. Some groups stay on campus, some are based off-campus. Some groups do a mix of on and off campus adventures. Selections are designed to appeal to many different interests and accommodate individual needs (dietary, mobility, stamina...). After moving in on Monday, students will have two full days of on-campus introductions to college life. Explore! begins on Thursday and runs until Saturday evening, giving students ample time to rest up for their first day of classes the following Monday.
Please fill out this form to select your top three choices for your Explore! experience. For a complete description of Explore! programs see our web page
www.washcoll.edu/explore
. We recommend viewing the complete list before completing the survey, but you will also be able to access the program descriptions within the survey. If you have any questions about Explore! please contact the Student Affairs team at
student_affairs@washcoll.edu
.
Note: Registration closes on June 30 and preference goes to those who register early. Explore! assignments will be announced at Flock Together in June.
