Returning Students

Welcome back to campus!   This website was created to assist you in your transition back to life at Oxy both academically and socially.  We have outlined a few administrative details below that you will be dealing with as a returned student, as well as a number of opportunities for you to stay involved in different cross-cultural activities on campus and throughout the neighborhood.  We also discuss, in-depth, the concept of Reverse Culture Shock, which many of you may be experiencing. 

Now that you have returned from off-campus study, what's next?

• The Returned Students Welcome Back! Reception will be held on Wednesday, January 30, 2008 at 4:00pm in the IPO
• Mandatory Off-Campus Study Evaluations are due on Friday, February 1, 2008
• For students who participated on a program that included an independent study project, please remember to submit a copy of your final project to the IPO so that we can process your transcript
