Shinerama

Take part in the biggest, student-led post-secondary fundraiser in Canada.

orientation_slider_mace

Wondering what this is?

Learn about the Mace and other Dalhousie traditions.

orientation_slider_dalympics

Move over Summer Olympics

Be a part of Dal's very own Dalympics - but don't expect the traditional sports. Instead, test your skills in belly flop competitions, underwater scavenger hunts, blindfolded beach volleyball, human bowling and much more!

Before you get here

orientation_cta_before2012

Have you set up your Dal email address? Found a place to live? Is your health insurance in order? Refer to our checklist of things to consider before you arrive on campus.

After you arrive

orientation_cta_after2012

There is no shortage of things to do once you arrive on campus; check-in to residence, find a part-time job, or sign up for intramurals.
