I am pleased to be among the first to congratulate you on your decision to attend DePauw University. You’ve joined an exceptional group of peers who will make up DePauw’s Class of 2022. I am delighted to have you as a member of our community and am eager for you to begin your journey with us in August. At DePauw, we are committed to helping you make a smooth transition from high school to college. We know this will be a stimulating new stage in your life and we are here to help you navigate this exciting change. Throughout your first year at DePauw, you will be introduced to a variety of new people, including faculty members, administrators and student staff, creating a supportive network of relationships, programs and resources designed to help you succeed. We have created this guide to help you through the transition to campus. It will help you prepare for your academic coursework and campus living in the fall. Read it thoroughly and refer back to it often because it contains important information about tasks you need to complete during the summer. If you have any questions, please feel welcome to call us at 765-658-6267. I hope you enjoy the remaining days of your high school career and I look forward to greeting you when you come to campus.
