New Student Welcome Week takes place from August 30 to September 7
This year鈥檚 NSO Welcome Week will take place from August 30 to September 7, featuring a fantastic lineup of events and activities to welcome new students to UPEI鈥攆rom academic sessions to social events. Our goal is to ensure that every new student feels supported, connected, and ready to embark on their university journey.
The week kicks off on August 30 with Residence Move-in Day, NSO Check-in, a Student Services fair, and many other events.
A highlight of Welcome Week will be a free BBQ in the Quad, hosted by 69传媒President Wendy Rodgers and the New Student Orientation (NSO) leaders, on Tuesday, September 3, from 11:00 am to 1:30 pm for the entire campus community, featuring games, activities, music, prizes, free tickets, and more. During the BBQ, members of the 69传媒Security Services team will be encouraging and assisting people to download the 69传媒SAFE app. Everyone is also encouraged to download the 69传媒PantherRec app to have a chance to win a UPEI-branded t-shirt, and to wear their 69传媒colours and gear!
At the BBQ, faculty and staff can pick up their complimentary tickets to the 69传媒Women鈥檚 Rugby home opener, which will take place on September 7 at 2 pm. Full-time students always have free admission to Panther home games.
