This program is purposed to facilitate the successful transition of our students as they navigate their respective collegiate experiences here at ESU.

The Early Arrival program serves as a vehicle to foster an understanding of self, leadership, excellence, and campus supports as our EAP students begin their fall semester.

The Early Arrival Program is a three-day program from Wednesday, August 21 to Friday, August 23, 2024. EAP students will participate in interactive workshops, socials, and networking experiences essential to developing their support systems, goals/legacy, and academic success plan.
