The relationships you build with your roommates and neighbors while living in the residence halls are the core of university housing, and at Texas Christian University the Department of Housing and Residence Life (HRL) provides the space where you will live, learn and grow. You will find HRL staff who live in your residence hall Resident Assistants (RAs) and Hall Directors (HDs) available to help you develop relationships with your roommate(s) and neighbors. As a freshman at TCU you will have the opportunity to live with a roommate as most of our rooms for freshmen are double occupancy rooms. However, some freshmen will be assigned to triple occupancy rooms as well. Living with a new person or persons and becoming a part of a residential community can provide you with many important life skills, in addition to a strong network of students to support you in your academic journey. The residence hall floor or wing you live on is part of a larger community a residence hall community and a campus community. Events and activities are provided in every hall to help bring different communities together and to build a sense of belonging and pride in the larger community. You will be encouraged by your RAs to get involved in your community and you will find that there is always something fun going on! Throughout all of this experience something else happens in university housing: Students grow and develop as members of a community. You will learn responsibility, learn to solve problems, and learn leadership skills. Some student-learning just happens, but much of it happens because of the intentional design of the university residence halls and the intentional plans for your student housing experience. At TCU, you are expected to live on campus for your first two academic years. You will have the opportunity to live in communities with one another to make friends, connect with your classmates, enhance your academic experiences, and find your place at TCU.

Every new first-year student is required to attend Orientation. Its the only way you can register for classes and learn the basics of academic life at TCU. We strongly encourage parents/guardians to attend Orientation with their students the program is most beneficial when students and parents attend together. Some activities are for students only, some for parents only, and some are for both. (Other family members are welcome to attend, but please note that no activities will be planned specifically for them, and many activities will be too long or inappropriate for small children to attend.) Transfer students It is strongly encouraged that transfer students attend an Orientation session. You have two choices of sessions: a one-day session focused on gathering TCU-specific information and resources, or a two-day session focused on preparing for the advising and registration process. The one-day sessions are only for transfer students and are designed to help you gather necessary information to help you successfully transition into the TCU learning community. The two-day sessions are intended for the traditional first-year students, but will give you an in depth understanding of the TCU Core Curriculum as well as the necessary information and resources for a successful start at TCU.

If you cannot attend a session in June, you may register for Orientation 9 but may not participate in Orientation 10.

In addition, they will attend a 12 First Year Experience

Students who live in Texas must attend a session in June. Travel plans and Schedule:

Check-in is at 11:30 a.m. on the first day and the program officially concludes at 5:00 p.m. on the second day. The final activity of Orientation is Advising and Class Registration. Please do not make travel plans that require you to leave campus prior to 5:00 p.m. on the second day. We are unable to accommodate alternative schedules for advising and registration. Honors College students: If you have been accepted into the Honors College, you will check in for Orientation at 10:30 a.m. for an early session that both students and parents are welcome to attend. You will be busy from the moment you arrive until the program ends, so please do not make any other plans during the session.

JuNE SESSIONS All students, including those from the Fort Worth/Dallas area, are required to stay on campus. If you attend in June youll stay in a typical residence hall for new students. There are a limited number of rooms for parents attending in June. Parents must make housing reservations, and the cost is $30 per parent. Parents and students will stay in separate rooms, and parents traveling alone will be assigned a roommate. We are only able to provide housing during the one night of your Orientation session.
