Informational Mailings
The Office of the Dean of Student Affairs will mail two informational packets to you over the course of the summer. Inside you will find a number of forms that you will need to return and information from various offices on campus that will help in your transition to Bowdoin. As a transfer student you may find information and forms here that were not included in your mailing. Many of these can help you to navigate your transition to Bowdoin and provide more information about our Orientation program should you choose to participate. Please note that only mailings with a *** denotation are expected to be completed and returned.
