Prepare for Arrival & Meet Your Classmates
Starting college is an exciting step—and it’s even better when you can start building connections and getting answers to your questions before move‑in day arrives.
Throughout spring and summer, Marietta College offers a variety of virtual sessions for incoming Fall 2026 students and, in some cases, for parents and family members. These experiences are designed to help you meet fellow new students, learn about campus resources, explore topics that match your interests or needs, and feel supported and confident as you prepare for college life.
Whether you’re looking to join a fun social event, learn more about academic opportunities, or connect with sessions focused on accessibility and support, there’s something here just for you.
Below is the lineup of events, including descriptions and registration links. Additional sessions may be added as the summer unfolds, so be sure to check back often.
Accounting – Your Way
Accounting is often called the “language of business” and it’s a foundation for success in almost any career path. Forget outdated stereotypes - today’s accounting professionals are tech-savvy problem-solvers working across industries from managing influencer income streams to supporting sustainability efforts for global organizations. Learn how Marietta’s newly designed accounting major is built for flexibility and future opportunity, even in the face of AI. With one major and four career-focused tracks, students can start with a strong business foundation and then tailor their path while building in-demand skills for both CPA and non-CPA careers.
