2011 SOAR - Student Schedule at a glance
View/print detailed student schedule

Notes:
* Those who have completed placement testing prior to SOAR do not need to take additional placement tests during SOAR.  Those taking placement tests prior to SOAR should do so at least 2 weeks in advance of their SOAR date to ensure we receive the scores on time.

* If you are not taking placement tests, you do not need to be first thing at 7:30am.  However, please do arrive by at least 9:30am to ensure time to check in for SOAR and the residence halls before we begin with our Welcome at 10am.
