Orientation for Lake of the Woods Campus (Kenora)
Join us for the Lake of the Woods (Kenora) Campus Orientation
Thursday, August 28th!
A New Student Orientation will be held on Thursday, August 28th starting at 12:30 p.m. CT at the Lake of the Woods (Kenora) Campus, free lunch included.
Most programs will also have program specific orientation with the faculty program coordinator on Tuesday, September 2nd beginning at 8:30 a.m. CT. Join us on campus for program specific orientation. Watch your college email for more information about college orientation.
At orientation, you will receive a package that will provide you with detailed “need-to-know” information about the campus and about being a Confederation College student including any updates to your timetable/course schedule. You will learn how to use blackboard and other college systems. Important paperwork will also be completed. Plus, we will host a free student lunch. It will be a great time to get to know fellow classmates, faculty and staff. Please plan to join us for the day’s events.
For most programs, the first day of classes will be on Wednesday, September 3rd.
There are a few things you should do to prepare for orientation and the first day of classes. Be sure to pay your tuition and fees and register for your fall semester courses. If you need any help, please come into the campus and one of the staff will help you through these processes.
Please bring your college ID number, username and password when you come to orientation or if you come in for payment and registration assistance.
Textbooks are available through the Follett Bookstore and can be purchased in Thunder Bay or ordered online. If you would like assistance ordering your books, please contact us at 807-468-3121, [email protected] or drop by the campus. We would love to help you in person.
