We want your transition to UHart to be a smooth one, so we've created a place where resources, next steps, and important "to-dos" can be found as you prepare for your first year.

We look forward to welcoming you at our in-person Orientation for first-year and transfer students!

Orientation is a great time to learn more about campus and your future as a Hawk! 

We look forward to meeting you soon. Please check back for more information on upcoming orientation dates. In the meantime, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us at css@hartford.edu so that we can help.
