In the summer prior to your first quarter, you will receive many emails from Harris Orientation which prepare you for the Harris student experience. Starting in late spring, we will compile the information and resources included in those emails below for you to reference as needed.
Visit this website often, and continue to check your personal and UChicago email accounts for important action items and due dates as you make your transition to Chicago and Harris.

Key Communications
Welcome to the Harris community!
We’re excited to share information about the Harris experience with you in advance of the fall quarter.
In the coming weeks, you will begin to receive three weekly digest emails. These emails will be sent until classes officially begin on September 29.
On Tuesdays, you will receive the Preparedness Digest. This series will outline key steps, actions, and tasks you need to complete over the summer to be set up for success when the fall quarter begins.
On Thursdays, you will receive the Career Digest from our Career Development Office ("CDO"). This digest will feature advice, tools, and opportunities designed to help you reach your career goals.
On Sundays, you will receive the Events Digest. Use these emails to plan your week, register for events, build your network, and get involved with your UChicago community. These emails will also include information about Harris Orientation programming.
Outside of those digests, we will also send you important emails about academics, orientation, resources, advising, etc., throughout the summer. We will also catalog each Preparedness Digest as well as other communications you may want to refer back to on the Admitted Students Portal. We recommend you review those previous communications and action items in the portal.
And remember, please email us at harrisorientation@uchicago.edu with any questions.
