We are excited that you have decided to make Scripps College your home away from home. New Student Programs and Orientation (NSPO) is designed to prepare you for your Scripps journey, acclimating you to campus resources, creating opportunities for engagement and building a greater sense of connectedness to one another and the greater Scripps community.
Please see the NSPO Schedule here: TBD
Fall 2024 New Student Move-in Information:
All students will check in at the TBD to pick up their Keys and Student ID Card and then will be directed to their Residence Hall from there. This is a drive-up process so please remain in your vehicle and drive through following the signs and staff guidance. Those arriving via airport shuttle or rideshare will be able to be dropped off nearby and can walk over to the walk-up station.
- Students can have up to two additional people on campus to help them move into their new space.
- No pets are allowed on campus during this time unless they have been preapproved by ARS as an ESA for the student attending Scripps.
- At check in we will give you your student ID card and/or room key (NOTE: Only students can check in to receive their ID card and keys, these will not be issued to family members or friends)
- Please review and fill out the Entrance Health form and submit to Student Health Services by TBD. Important note: Not having these forms completed and turned in can hinder your move in process. If you are unable to submit the form by the deadline due to appointment conflicts with your medical provider, please reach out to the Dean of Students office by email to let them know. You can email them at [email protected].
*Please do not park in spots designated for Staff/Faculty. Doing so will put you at risk of being towed at your expense.
