Welcome Week

New York City is our campus.

Welcome Week & Orientation

As a Marymount Manhattan College student, New York City is your campus. That’s why we’re inviting all new students a week before classes begin—so you can explore and familiarize yourself with campus and the city for a whole week, uninterrupted.

This year, Welcome Week will be held during the week of August 31, with classes beginning Wednesday, September 9. Throughout the week, a variety of programs will provide you ample opportunities for you to begin to find your community here on campus. Some of these programs are more educational— our Health and Safety at MMC session, while some are more social—like our off-campus excursions to the Bronx Zoo or Times Square. No matter which ones you attend, you’ll be sure to meet other students who share the same passions and similar interests as you!

Welcome Week is also a time for you to get to meet your Orientation Leader and ask them any burning questions you may have—academic, social, you name it! Our team of Orientation Leaders are students who are dedicated to making your transition to Marymount the easiest and most enjoyable experience it can be. Learn more about our Orientation Leaders here.

New students received Welcome Week and Orientation communications to their emails with details on how to register through MMC Engage. Questions? Email orientation@mmm.edu .
