It’s official!
You’re an Earlhamite. Now what?
You’ll need to complete a number of action items before your arrival on campus in August. In your New Student Portal, you’ll find everything you need — check items off of your to-do list, answer trivia questions (for a chance to win the grand prize!), connect with faculty members and much more.
Earlham is a place for advocates, athletes and artists. For future doctors, engineers, writers and chefs. For bare-footers, do-gooders and world-changers.
It’s a place of excellence, and now, it’s a place for you. Welcome home.
In your New Student Portal, you can:
View important decisions, documents and dates
Access everything you need in one place:
- Your admissions decision
- Your financial aid package and scholarship information
- Visit dates
- Due dates for your action items (when available)
