Transitions Program
Your success — both in the classroom and as a member of our campus community – is our top priority. The Transitions Program is one way we help you begin that journey with confidence. This pre-orientation experience for incoming first-year students is designed to help you feel at home at Providence College through storytelling, connection-building, and interactive activities.
Additional Program Details:
- You’ll build friendships, learn a lot about yourself and the campus, and start college feeling better prepared.
- Join us for a special welcome session for Transitions students and their families on Saturday, August 22. It’s a chance to connect with other students and families, meet our Dream Coaches, and learn more about the Transitions Program from the Multicultural Student Success staff and special guests.
- You’ll get to know our Dream Coaches, who are there to help you navigate, answer questions, and keep it real with you. Many were once in your shoes as Transitions students or know firsthand what it’s like to be new to college.
