Incoming Students-Fall

Pre-Orientation 2025

The Millersville Arrival Program (MAP) is an online pre-orientation program for incoming undergraduate students. It contains important information related to your orientation program and tasks you must complete before beginning your first semester. You are expected to complete each module of the MAP as it becomes available to you. The first module of the MAP opened on March 3, 2025.

The MAP is viewable on tablets and most mobile devices in addition to your computer. You can work at your own pace, stopping and continuing at any time. Once completed, you may refer back to it at any point in your MU career! 

To access the MAP, you will need to have previously activated your Millersville Online Accounts. Do this by clicking this link, https://myaccount.millersville.edu, and following the instructions under the “First Time Account Setup (Incoming Students)” icon. You will need to provide your birthdate as well as your Marauder Student Identification Number, or “M number” which can be found on your admission acceptance letter or your paid confirmation deposit email (available in your application account). You can then use your Millersville username and password to access the MAP. 

Contact Orientation Programs at 717-871-4370 with questions or concerns about your next steps after depositing at Millersville University.

*Your Millersville email is how the University will convey official information to you. You should get in the habit of checking your Millersville email regularly to avoid missing important information about orientation, housing, and your academic program.

EPPIIC Weekend 2025

Orientation for all Fall 2025 incoming students will be held, Thursday, August 21 through Sunday, August 24, 2025.

The most important task to complete at orientation is getting acquainted with college life at Millersville University. Even if you have attended another institution, college life at MU will have some differences, and you should plan to attend.

The University's goal is for you to immerse yourself in college life so that when you start classes the following week, you "hit the ground running." Orientation gives you the opportunity to make friends, investigate campus clubs and organizations, meet department faculty, learn about helpful resources, be informed of policies and regulations, and become comfortable with navigating the campus. The full EPPIIC Weekend schedule will be available in early summer.

Orientation Fee

Incoming students are expected to attend orientation much in the same way students are expected to attend classes. An orientation fee is included in your semester bill to cover the expenses associated with the program. This fee is charged regardless of your participation. Our commitment to campus service providers and material costs prevents the issuing of refunds should you be unable to attend the program.

Summer Welcome 2025

CAN'T WAIT TO GET HERE?

If you would like one more look at MU before the start of EPPIIC Weekend, you are invited to attend one of four "Summer Welcomes" being held in July.

During this optional event, you can meet other new students, take care of some "next steps," meet with department faculty, and enjoy lunch in a casual, relaxed atmosphere.
