What do I need to know?

• Taking place in November and January, you will attend your one-day, in-person orientation program.

• Orientation runs from approximately 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. for both students and guests. 

• Parents and guests do not need to register to attend.

• A light breakfast is provided and you will have an opportunity to eat lunch with your parents or guests in our dining halls.

What do I need to bring?

• You will need a photo ID so you can get your FLASHcard, which is your student ID.

• Bring a water bottle and comfortable walking shoes. The DKS program happens rain or shine, and you will be walking around campus. Please check the weather and bring appropriate gear.

• You must have your FlashLine user ID (your university email ending in "kent.edu") and password with you to register for your courses. We strongly recommend that you get comfortable with logging in to FlashLine prior to attending DKS.
