Congratulations on your acceptance to Philadelphia University!  We invite you to continue your undergraduate experience by participating in START, our Winter orientation program.

We are looking forward to your arrival. The purpose of this website is to provide you with important information about the START orientation program for first-year students on Tuesday, January 8, 2013.

All new students, including freshmen, transfer and international students are required to participate in this program.

During START, you will take part in a number of activities with other entering students. You will be meeting with Academic Advisors and receive your class schedule. This website provides you with a preview of the program; however, you will receive a more complete, updated schedule of events during START check-in.

In order to confirm your place in the START program and provide an accurate count for meals, please complete the online response form by Tuesday, January 7, 2013. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at (215) 951-2634. I look forward to meeting you and I welcome you to the Philadelphia University community.
