ORIENTATION
Your GW journey starts here!
Congratulations on officially becoming a member of our GW family! Your journey to GW begins now. Over the summer you will learn more about what it means to be a GW student, interact with your future classmates and current students, and complete necessary tasks to prepare you for success here at GW.
As you embark on this new journey, we are excited to share this year’s orientation theme with you! Becoming a Revolutionary: Democracy is in our DNA.
Democracy is in Our DNA is a university initiative seeks to strengthen our community through civic engagement and dynamic experiences that inspire curiosity and exploration. Our commitment is to cultivate a campus environment where each member can engage with opportunities and programs that foster student development, wellbeing and belonging at GW and beyond.
