We are delighted that you will be taking classes at Drew University this spring!  Now it is time to begin preparing for the start of your first semester. While your orientation has been scheduled for Friday, January 25th, there are several matters which you should tackle now.

Orientation

Orientation for new College Special, College Visiting and Post Baccalaureate students starting at Drew for the spring 2013 semester is scheduled for Friday, January 25, 2013, beginning at 10:00 A.M.

At orientation, you will learn about important policies, procedures and deadlines, make changes if needed to your registration, get your ID card, and take care of other tasks before classes begin. All new non-matriculated students are required to attend orientation. If you are unable to attend, please notify the Continuing Education Office  promptly: 973.408.3400.

Health Forms

All incoming students are required to complete health forms and provide proof of immunization as part of their enrollment.  These forms must be completed in full online and in paper.  No substitutions for online forms will be accepted.

Students should start this process by visiting http://www.drew.edu/health/new-student-documents.  Please note that the Physical Examination is optional for College Special/Visiting and high school students.

All health forms must be completed before students will be allowed to continue registration or occupy housing.  Students without completed health forms may be de-enrolled from classes!

For additional information regarding required health forms, please contact the Health Services Office with any questions: 973.408.3414 or healthed@drew.edu.

Housing

On-campus housing is available on a space-available basis to full-time students taking 12 or more credits. If you are interested in living on campus, please contact Bob Meade, Undergraduate Housing Coordinator, 973.408.3681.

Please note that campus housing is not open to high school students.

As a Drew student, you will receive a network account which gives you access to your Drew email account, Treehouse Self Service  (your student information portal) and your personal network drive. Your Drew uLogin information is sent electronically upon admission to the email address you provided on your application form.   If you have not received your uLogin information, please contact Sunita Bhargava at 973-408-3400 or owl@drew.edu.

Registration

All students are assigned an adviser, and students work in consultation with their advisers in making registration selections.

Please review the spring course listing available at Treehouse Self Service by clicking “Look Up Classes” under “Registration Tools.”  Email your initial course selection to your advisor, Sunita Bhargava, at owl@drew.edu.  She will review your course selection before providing you with the PIN number which will enable you to complete your on-line registration process.
