Welcome!
Congratulations on your acceptance and decision to attend Rensselaer! The Office of the First-Year Experience is excited to welcome you as a part of the Rensselaer community this summer and fall.
Orientation marks the beginning of your membership into the Rensselaer family. The purpose of orientation is to help you make a seamless transition from high school to your new life as a Rensselaer student. This website is a supplement to the “This is Orientation” booklet mailed home as part of the Student Orientation confirmation packet. Rensselaer offers a comprehensive, two-part orientation experience for all incoming students consisting of Student Orientation (SO) and Navigating Rensselaer & Beyond (NRB).
Deadlines and dates update
At this point in the summer, the following forms and items are all “past due:”
- Student Orientation forms
- Report of Medical History form
- Navigating Rensselaer & Beyond trip forms
- Laptop forms
- Final high school transcript and form (this is necessary to complete your enrollment)

It is very important that you setup and regularly check your RPI email address. You can check your email online at webmail.rpi.edu. If you don't plan on regularly checking it, please forward it to a different address. Directions for setting up your RCS ID (which allows access to email) were included as part of your Student Orientation confirmation packet.
