New to campus? Get connected!

Registration for Project Connect opens Aug. 25.

The six-week program begins Sept. 14. New students can get to know others and learn more about the University via one-hour weekly sessions. The program helps build connection and community through weekly small-group discussions led by student peer facilitators. New students are able to meet other first-year students, learn about resources and fun things to do on campus, and get tips to help get their time at URI off to a good start.

Project Connect is open to all first-year and transfer students. Space is limited: sign up early!
