Virtual Summer Information Sessions

Class of 2031, Transfer Students, Parents and Families

Bucknell offers a variety of online presentations about campus offices and resources for new students and their families. You'll have the opportunity to learn about a range of topics — from academics to dining, transportation, move-in and more. Mark your calendars and bring your questions to these Zoom sessions led by Bucknell faculty and staff.

Virtual summer information sessions will begin in June and continue through early August. Program details, including links, will be added to this page throughout the summer.

In addition to offering live Zoom sessions, we will record and post all sessions to our video playlist, allowing students and families to watch recordings on their schedule. Videos will be added to the playlist on a rolling basis.

Please contact orientation@bucknell.edu with any questions and check back regularly for updates to the program.
