OPENING OF COLLEGE - SEPTEMBER 2008

 

Central Check-In: All students are required to participate in CCI, even if they have previously picked up their room keys.  Students who fail to do so or are unable to report during the scheduled hours for any reason (travel plans, other personal obligations, etc.) will be charged a $60 fee and must process their enrollment at individual campus offices, beginning with Student Financial Services.  The fee is added to the student's account and is not waived. 

Students will obtain registration materials and catalogues, validate ID's and pick up house keys at CCI.  For returning students CCI will take place at the Indoor Track and Tennis Facility during the following times:

 Tuesday, September 2nd from 10 am to 2 pm and

Wednesday, September 3rd from 1pm to 3pm

 

Houses are open for returning students beginning at 10 a.m. on Tuesday, September 2nd. Keys will be distributed at Central Check-In. Visit the Student Affairs website for further information about housing.

Students who intend to return to campus prior to September 2nd may not return earlier than August 29th under any circumstances and will be charged a fee of $25.00 per day of early arrival.  This fee will be billed directly to the student account. There will be no exceptions to the early arrival fee or date.  Those members of teams, organizations or groups required by the College to return prior to the 30th will be notified by the head of their group as to the date they are expected to arrive. If you have any questions concerning early arrival, please contact the Office of Residence Life at (413) 585-4940.  Students must email their request to the Office of Residential Life (ehait@email.smith.edu). Students permitted to return early must plan to participate in Central Check-In on either September 2nd or 3rd.

You may not remove furniture from your room; however, if you are interested in having your bed removed prior to your arrival, you should contact Building Services through the Physical Plant customer service number at (413) 585-2400 to have a Bed Removal Request Form mailed to you. You may also complete the form within the first week of fall opening. There is a fee for bed removal.

 

Opening Convocation will be held at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, September 3rd.

 

Final Examinations in the Fall Semester: The dates of the fall 2008 examination period are Tuesday through Friday, December 16-19.  It is the student's responsibility to be on campus during this period and to make travel plans accordingly. The Administrative Board will not consider requests to take final examinations early.
