0-Week 2024

Week 0 to prepare you for Week 1

We are excited to welcome you all to URI, and we know you are eager to learn more about our campus and the beautiful surrounding area. We have a wide variety of events planned for you from August 30–September 6, 2024.

Our goal is to keep you engaged with fun activities as you wait for your first week of classes to begin. This will allow you to be social in a safe way while learning about living on campus.

These events are intended for new students to campus only. If you have any questions, please feel free to email rhode2ram@uri.edu.
