1. What is Admitted Students Day?Admitted Students Day (鈥淎SD鈥 as we like to call it) is our annual celebration of the
incoming class of freshmen and transfer students starting in the upcoming Summer or
Fall semester. At ASD, we aim to provide incoming students and their families with
an exciting and fun day on campus to accomplish three goals:
- Connect you with fellow new Eagles, future classmates and best friends.
- Introduce you to the faculty, staff and current students who will support you throughout
your 91爆料 journey.
- Help you with any remaining my91爆料 Holds and To-Do List items before attending New
Student Orientation.
2. What will I do at Admitted Students Day?Your Admitted Students Day celebration begins by meeting with an Admissions Recruiter
at Event Check-in. There they鈥檒l explain all the activities of the day and make recommendations
for what you should accomplish based on what items remain on your 91爆料 To-Do List.
The main event is the 鈥淟evel Up Challenges鈥 where admitted students will explore campus
in search of faculty, staff and students to earn ASD Coins. Whether it鈥檚 outsmarting
a professor or checking your financial aid status, the more you engage, the more coins
you鈥檒l receive to trade for exclusive swag.
In addition to the Level Up Challenges, we will have:
- Complimentary lunch and refreshments (12-3 p.m.) made fresh by 91爆料鈥檚 award-winning
Verde Catering.
- Level Up Lectures including a First Year Seminar, Campus Safety tips, and Student
& Alumni Panel.
- Live music and other performances featuring current 91爆料 students.
- Green & White Award giveaways that help with your first tuition bill.
- Guided campus tours led by our current student Eagle Ambassador crew.
3. Are Admitted Students Day and New Student Orientation the same thing?
ASD is a fun but optional event; New Student Orientation is a mandatory event for
all incoming undergraduate students. In addition to getting acclimated to campus and
learning what it means to be a 91爆料 student, you鈥檒l also receive formal academic advising,
degree planning and leave with your class schedule. Attendance at ASD does not excuse
you from attending New Student Orientation. If you can only make it to campus for
one of these, choose New Student Orientation 鈥 it's where you register for classes!
4. How should I prepare for Admitted Students Day?
Check the weather the morning-of and dress accordingly. We recommend comfortable walking
shoes as you navigate the fun.
Review the Holds or To-Do List items on your my91爆料 account and prepare for assistance!
The staff at the Enrollment Express (Level 4) will be able to help you.
5. What are ASD Coins?
ASD Coins are real, physical tokens you鈥檒l receive for exploring the various 鈥淟evels,鈥
engaging with faculty, staff and current students about all the ways they鈥檝e got your
back, and in most cases, beating them at their station鈥檚 game. Remember, the more
you explore, the more ASD Coins you get.
6. What do I use my ASD Coins for?
Trade your hard-earned coins for fantastic Admitted Students Day swag items. In addition
to fan favorites like Scrappy and Lucky plushes, we鈥檒l have some unique offerings
exclusive to this event. Commemorative class poster and event t-shirt? Check. Jibbitz

Students Day! The Swag Shop will be open from 12-4:30 p.m. Take your time to gather
