Check in and pick up your WOW t-shirt and packet. Packets can be picked up during the following check-in times:

Students are required to attend ALL WOW sessions on their campus as part of their UNI 100 requirement. These sessions take place Tuesday- Friday on the Huntington Campus and on Friday at the Mid-Ohio Valley Center.

Students attending WOW on the Huntington Campus will be assigned specific face-to-face sessions to attend. Personal student schedules will be available on the MU Mobile App. You can choose your preferred times for each of the virtual WOW sessions and visit the WOW activities tab for optional evening and weekend events!

Lunch is provided for all students enrolled in UNI 100 during Week of Welcome. WOW meals are available in Harless Dining Hall. WOW meal details are available at www.marshall.edu/wow/dining.

Use our campus map for help finding session, dining and event locations.

The health and safety of everyone – students, faculty, staff and visitors – remain Marshall University’s highest priority. Please review Marshall University’s Return-to-Campus Plan at marshall.edu/coronavirus. 

Wear comfortable shoes and clothing. You never know what the weather might bring, so consider a light jacket, umbrella, etc. WOW will go on, rain or shine!

Many offices on the Huntington campus offer extended hours to serve first-year students during Week of Welcome. Appointments are encouraged. A list of frequently used phone numbers and university websites is available to assist students in finding additional assistance as needed.

We highly recommend downloading Microsoft Teams and signing in using your MUNet username and password prior to Week of Welcome. Students will be required to attend three virtual sessions via Microsoft Teams during WOW. To learn more about available software and how to download, visit the available software page.

Your personal Week of Welcome schedule will be available through our interactive mobile app during WOW. Learn more and download MU Mobile at www.marshall.edu/mumobile.

Complete the setup of your Marshall Mobile ID on your iPhone or Android devices prior to arriving for Week of Welcome for easy access to your residence hall, meals and activities.
