Passages Activities

What's Next?

So after you attend Preview you'll be heading home with a bag full of information and two days of excitement behind you. Once you've gotten home and unpacked your things, you're probably wondering what's next?

The weekend before classes start, Illinois State offers the Passages Welcome Weekend. Passages encourages student interaction, university involvement and focuses on connecting you to Illinois State University.

During this welcome weekend, you’ll enjoy a number of programs and activities that will answer any questions you may have about academics, living in the residence halls, and getting involved at the University. You’ll discover how Illinois State can help you develop your unique talents and interests, and will provide you with individualized resources to help you succeed.

Activities during passages include:

  • Picnicking on the Quad
  • Meeting with your Academic Department
  • Attending a Technology QuickStart session to get you acclimated to Illinois State's different technologies
  • Walking through Milner Library, learning bout the resources available to Illinois State students
