Welcome to Haverford College!
As Dean for First-Year students, I have the pleasure to be your primary administrative resource person. As you prepare to enter college, and throughout your first year at Haverford, you should feel free to contact me for any assistance and/or guidance you might need. I work as part of a team of dedicated faculty, administrators and students who are eager for your arrival on August 29, 2012. International students are expected to arrive Sunday, August 26.
Customs Teams (upper class students) will welcome you when you arrive on campus and will serve as your guides during Customs Week and throughout the year. Customs Week at Haverford is designed to serve as an orientation to our community for the first year students. Placement tests and meetings with Faculty Advisers and with Upper Class Advisers (UCAs) during Customs Week will help you prepare to be ready for the first day of classes on September 4th. The updated Customs Week schedule will be posted during the summer.
Once you receive your Haverford email credentials, make sure you sign up to receive the First Year Blog updates. The information on the blog will guide you through deadlines to be met, introduce you to important resources and provide you with tips from the students working in the Deans' Office this summer.
I look forward to meeting you on August 29th. Enjoy your summer!
Sincerely,
Raisa Williams
Dean for First Year Students
