Welcome to Winthrop!

We look forward to meeting you at Orientation! We strive to create a welcoming and engaging experience for new students and their families through Orientation, Welcome Week, and Family Programs.

Our hope is that through Orientation you learn more about the Winthrop experience and how to be successful in your transition academically, socially, and personally. We provide many tools and resources to help with this - it all starts at Orientation. Go Eagles!
