New Spiders

Eager to Arrive to Campus?

We don’t blame you! The University of Richmond offers a number of transition programs that occur just prior to New Spider Orientation. Instead of moving in on Wednesday, August 18, 2021, students who participate in a transition program move in on Sunday, August 15, 2021.
