We strongly recommend that each student arrive at least a couple of days before the
first day of orientation events to settle into their new accommodations and dispense with
the effects of jet lag. Students with reservations in SOHARA Housing may look to the
Housing overview webpage for specific move-in dates and times. We also consider it
just short of mandatory that everyone arrive at least 24 hours before the Orientation
session itself to avoid distractions during their introduction to the institute. The formal
Orientation includes placement exams, a presentation about foreign study acclamation,
a discussion of institute policies, visa registration, and an engaging tour of historic sites
across Northern Morocco.
