Congratulations on becoming a Seahawk! All incoming students are required to attend this exciting welcome to St. Mary’ s College of Maryland. At Orientation, we will help you discover all that SMCM has to offer, from academic resources to making friends and getting involved, to becoming familiar with where things are on campus. Your experience at Orientation will provide you with a comprehensive introduction to our community and expectations, as well as provide you with all the support you need to transition successfully to the flock! Commuter students’ meals are paid for during orientation.
