EIU Welcome Weekend

Spring Welcome 2024

We know college is exciting, but also challenging. So, we’ve developed Welcome Weekend to help you make a smooth transition to your new life as an EIU Panther. Welcome Weekend offers educational and social opportunities for you to learn about community expectations and how you can connect to Eastern – opportunities that will provide you with a solid foundation for both personal and academic success.

This year, we'll kick off your Spring Welcome with a lunch with faculty and administrators on Friday, January 5 from 12:30pm-1:30pm in the University Ballroom in the MLK Jr. Union.  This is encouraged, but not required.  To RSVP, please click here.
