You’re back! Or you’re here for the first time! Either way, you made it to Bronco Welcome and we’re so happy and excited for you. Here are some ways you can get prepared, meet people, and get your semester off to a great start.

1) Find your people at the Involvement Fair

Discover clubs and organizations at Boise State that bring connection and community. Head to Jordan Ballroom in the Student Union Building from 2 – 5 p.m on Wednesday, January 21 for the Involvement Fair.

2) Order your class materials

It’s a good idea to order your class materials online. You can find steps to access your personalized booklist on the Bronco Shop website.

3) Say “yes” to meeting new people

On January 12 , go to the dorm quad from 6 – 8 p.m. for Neighborhood Night. Adjusting to you new surroundings can take some time so play games, make new friends and join in on the various events happening across campus to find belonging. 

4) Start the new year with a mindful moment

Reflect and recharge by creating a personalized journal at Crafternoon from noon – 10 p.m. on Thursday, January 15. Set yourself up for self-expression all semester long.

5) Warm up your first day 

Warm up to the new semester with a hot chocolate and good company at the Hot Cocoa Social on the Quad on January 12 from 11 a.m to 1 p.m. Hot drinks and friends: no better way to start your semester!

5 ½) You did it!

There’s a lot of things to check off of every student’s list before school starts and that is definitely overwhelming, but you’ve done it. A new semester is here! Celebrate yourself, and have a great semester!
