Welcome Week

"Welcome Week" is designed for new students to become better acquainted with college life and prepare for their first semester, Welcome Week is a series of fun events that will give first-year students a taste of what the C of I has to offer in the week leading up to the official beginning of the fall semester.

Welcome Week for the 2019-20 academic year begins on August 23.

By the end of the week, students will not only be settled into their new dorm rooms, they will have built a set of memories that will stay with them throughout their entire college experience.

McCall Wilderness Experience

Freshmen at The College of Idaho all attend a unique overnight orientation session in beautiful McCall, Idaho. Held at a lakeside camp in the heart of the Payette National Forest, students get to know their dormmates, classmates, and friends for the next four years. A long-time tradition for C of I students, alumni talk about this trip for decades to come.
