Be a Part from the Start program logo

"Be A Part From The Start” is a 10 week campus-wide student retention program that consists of a plethora of activities and events designed to help students engage in the University from the moment of arrival at CI.  The “Be A Part From The Start” series kicks off with a week of welcome called "Ride the Tide" and is followed by nine themed weeks based on each of Channel Islands’ Dimensions of Development.

Be sure to pick up a 'Be Card' to earn redeemable points every time you attend a Be a Part From the Start event!  'Be Cards' are available at the New Student Center, The Hub or at any Be A Part From the Start event.

For more information, please visit the Be a Part From the Start web page, which contains a link to the University Calendar that shows the current event schedule.

Please contact New Student, Orientation and Transition Programs at (805) 437-3160 if you have any questions or require additional information.
