▼ 1. What does Orientation have to offer me?
We attempt to open as many doors for you as possible, including offering a space to meet new people, ways to build contacts and communities, a place to learn about what Grenfell can offer you, and a chance to learn more about Corner Brook and Newfoundland. Orientation has a lot to offer you, whether you are a commuting, living in residence, a mature student, or a student from another province/country. Orientation helps students through their transition to Grenfell Campus by providing support, necessary information, and an introduction to our campus community.
▼ 2. Should I take the time to work through the Orientation course shell, "Your Grenfell Experience"?
Yes! This shell provides new students will a lot of valuable and necessary information including how to register for classes, what you should bring to housing, how to pay your fees, how to get in touch with student support teams, and so much more! You can jump around to what interests you as information is released throughout the summer. Check out online.mun.ca to find Brightspace!
▼ 3. I am moving into residence. What should I know before I arrive?
All of the information you need is listed on the
Student Housing page. For further information or assistance, please contact
grenfellhousing@grenfell.mun.ca and check out the Brightspace Orientation Shell "Your Grenfell Experience"
▼ 4. How easy will it be to meet people?
Very easy! Orientation offers plenty of events for people to make connections and have fun. Orientation will even place you in a small group of fellow first-year students so that you can meet others in a less stressful setting. If you are planning to move into student residence, there are special orientation events that will help you get to know your neighbors. Similarly, Indigenous and International students often have events and get togethers to welcome new students. In addition to all of this, Grenfell has
clubs, societies, and caucuses in which you can find like-minded individuals!
