Admissions

As an incoming freshman, I was very excited to attend ODU. It is important to get to know your roommates before you move in to make sure that you will all prepare and bring with you all the essentials for your new dorm room. As a freshman, I did a few walks around campus before my first day of classes, just to be sure I knew where all my classes were! It is important to make sure you have a time where you can go to Hamilton Hall to eat lunch in between classes, and more importantly get in before class and have breakfast. If you will be a member of an athletic team, it is important to let your Professors know on the first day what, if any, classes may conflict with games or practices (normally very few). Most importantly, you must remain excited! Stay confident, everyone is nervous as an incoming freshmen, but you are all in the same boat. Meet new people, be outgoing, and remember... these next four years will be the best of your life!
