Welcome to The College of Saint Rose.
Whether you are a first year or transfer student, your college years are a very exciting time
in your life. Some would say that they are the best years of your life, and we hope that your
times at Saint Rose certainly will be.
When you arrive on campus on Wednesday, August 23rd, we will be here to greet you and
make you feel at home right away. Your two day comprehensive orientation experience
will take place on Thursday and Friday followed by our Week of Welcome. The programs
in the first week provide you an immediate opportunity to get better acquainted with the
campus, get involved, meet fellow classmates and make new friends — making the transition
to Saint Rose an enjoyable one.
As you settle in you will soon discover what you may have read or have been told — that
Saint Rose truly is a very special place.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CONTACT THE OFFICE OF STUDENT AFFAIRS AT (518) 454-5170.
