New Student Advising

    Program Dates, Locations, and Deadlines

     

    Remember: The sooner you attend New Student Advising, the earlier you'll register — and the more likely you'll get the classes you want.

    Choose one of the following event dates and make your reservation. Your reservation must reach SPU by the corresponding deadline date. Space is limited, and some events may reach capacity prior to the deadline!



    If you have questions, email nsa@spu.edu. If your home address or phone number has changed, contact admissions@spu.edu with the new information.

    Off-Campus (choose morning or afternoon session)

    Off-campus New Student Advising events have morning sessions (8:30 a.m.–1 p.m.) and afternoon sessions (noon–4 p.m.).

    Lunch is served for both morning and afternoon attendees from noon–1 p.m. This is a great time to get to know other students attending SPU from your area.

    On the day of the event, if you need to contact SPU staff at the location (i.e., for directions, to let us know you are running late, or to cancel), call 206-281-2575 for a recorded message with contact information.
