Your Bowdoin arrival is just days away.
Your journey to college begins now.

The transition to college isn't just about packing a suitcase. In most cases, you will be moving to a new place, preparing to live with someone you haven't met, changing healthcare providers, designing an academic schedule from scratch, and building a network of people who can provide help and support.

As soon as you arrive on campus, you will receive printed copies of the Arrival Day Map and Schedule, linked below—in full color, and in a large, easy-to-read size.
