Welcome to OCAD University (OCAD U)!
Campus Life, your OCAD Student Union, and university support and service units are currently planning O-DAYS! 2022 (orientation), featuring informative online activities and workshops, and a return to in-person socials and engagement. While designed with the new and first-year undergraduate students in mind, there's something for everyone, whether you are new or returning!
Welcome Day: Tuesday, September 6, starting at 9:30 a.m.
New undergraduate students (studying in our bachelor programs) are invited to join us on the campus to kick off the academic year! Engagement is fun and inviting—including a special welcome, information sessions and Service Expo, the Annual Above Ground Art Supplies Materials Fair, and our Community Fair with free lunch courtesy of Salad King, and a corn roast by Mr. Corn—and more!
Visit www.ocadu.ca/orientation for complete details and a full list of activities and programs, as well as links to RSVP where required!
- New undergraduate students: Stay tuned! Watch your email for details about Welcome Day later in August — and this page for regular updates. Join us for any of these fun, informative event options designed to support your success!
- Are you a returning, upper-year student (second- , third- or fourth-year) who would like to attend the 2022 Community Fair as part of orientation? You're welcome, but please register here...
- Are you a Masters student? New graduate students enrolled in Master of Fine Arts (MFA), Master of Design (MDes), and/or Master of Art (MA) programs have a separate in-person orientation planned through Graduate Studies. For more information contact the Graduate Studies office.
