A Few More Things You Should Know About鈥�

First-Year Seminar

Classes for the fall semester start on August 26, 2024, and as an incoming freshman, you鈥檒l take a course called First-Year Seminar. These classes explore a wide range of topics and are open only to first-year students. The professor who teaches your seminar will also be your academic advisor, so it is a great way to quickly get to know your advisor and a small group of other freshman.

Student Visa (International Students)

After you submit your enrollment deposit, we鈥檒l provide more information about how to receive your I-20 form. Your I-20 will be sent in May, giving you plenty of time to schedule an appointment with your local U.S. Consulate. Our International Student Advisor, Habeeb Awad, is available to answer any questions you might have.

International Student and Global Citizen Pre-Orientation

Your introduction to Hope and Holland starts a week earlier than most other new students. It begins with a fun excursion to northern Michigan for Explore Michigan where you will have time to get over your jet lag and bond with new classmates from all over the globe.

Back on campus, international students & their parents continue with International Student Orientation and International Family Orientation, programs which provide important information and advice about visa and employment regulations, cultural adjustment, academic policies and expectations, housing and dining on campus, financial aid policies and other issues related to life at Hope College.
