Your college experience is what you make of it. Make the most of your time at EKU.
Discover your true calling at EKU. Choose from a variety of in-demand and nationally recognized academic programs, from associate to doctoral degrees.
Your first year at EKU is an exciting time of new opportunities. It can also be a challenging time. EKU offers a number of programs for first-year students to help you navigate the transition to college life.
All first-time freshmen start their official EKU experience with orientation. This is a day where they interact with EKU offices, faculty and staff, learn important information about life at EKU, meet other future Colonels, and most importantly register for first semester of classes. Admitted students who have paid their Colonel Commitment Fee will receive an email with information about selecting an orientation date that best fits their schedule when orientation registration opens. After students select their orientation date, they will receive a pre-advising survey email which will help our academic advisors build their first semester schedule.
Your FYE will start with Big E Welcome – a series of events your first weekend on campus that will help you build friendships, equip you with skills to excel in the classroom and welcome you to the EKU experience. Other events and experiences are offered throughout the year to help you embrace campus life and make the most of your time as an EKU Colonel.
EKU has invested in a number of campus improvements ensuring our Colonels have modern and well-equipped spaces that support their education and overall wellbeing.
Experience EKU at your convenience using our Virtual Tour. You’ll find information about campus housing, academic buildings, athletic facilities and so much more. After taking the virtual tour, be sure to schedule a time to visit campus and apply for admission.
