What will I get out of Griffon Edge?

Connection to Campus:

Color Teams: Before Griffon Edge begins, all students will be assigned to one of 30+ color teams. You’ll receive communication from us in August with your assigned color team. Each color team is led by 1-2 student leaders called Griffon Edge Mentors. Your Griffon Edge Mentor will be your “go-to” person to answer questions and guide your way throughout Griffon Edge. Griffon Edge Mentors are a great resource to help you if you have questions throughout your first year on campus too!

Social Events: Making friends can be one of the most intimidating parts of starting college. Griffon Edge is here to help you make those connections before classes even begin. On top of the people you’ll meet in your color team, we will offer nightly social events where you can connect with even more Griffons.

Prepare for Classes:

Schedule Crawl: Nervous about finding your classes? We provide a one on one tour of your class schedule so there is no scrambling to find a classroom on your first day. 

Resources: At Griffon Orientation we introduced you to campus resources, at Griffon Edge you’ll get in-depth knowledge from staff and faculty about how to succeed in the classroom, how to get involved, and how to survive your first year. All of our sessions will give you practical knowledge that will help your thrive in your first year.
