Students entering grades 9-12 can now be part of the Summer Writers Program with a special section for high school students. Click here: for more information

The Office of Orientation and New Student Programs can assist you in acclimating to campus and adjusting to the college experience. Counselors and staff offer one-on-one assistance to all first-year students and help with your transition to college life. The office also coordinates Explore Next Door, a series of events for new students. These events have recently included:

  • Trips to Broadway shows such as Hairspray and other productions, including the Radio City Christmas Spectacular.
  • Museum excursions and a television studio tour in Manhattan.
  • An apple and pumpkin picking trip with a hayride.
  • Trips to the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island and Central Park.
  • Sporting events such as New York Yankees and Mets baseball games and New York Islanders hockey games.
  • We have also coordinated learning projects such as “a day of service” with Habitat for Humanity.

Transferring to Hofstra

The Office of Orientation and New Student Programs also assists transfer students. Transfer Orientation sessions are planned to help you learn more about campus resources, connect with your classmates, understand the curriculum, meet with advisers and register for classes.
