The ORIGINS Experience
Start your transition to Carnegie Mellon early.
The ORIGINS Experience is a year-long inclusion program that begins a few days prior to First-Year Orientation. The ORIGINS Experience focuses on community building and leadership development for historically and socially marginalized first-year students, specifically uplifting social identities in gender identity, gender expression, race, ethnicity, and sexual orientation. We also center first generation and under-resourced student populations.
Like all of our programs, all students are welcome to join the ORIGINS Experience.
ORIGINS activities and workshops for students occurs August 17-20 and does not exclude students from taking advantage of other campus programs or initiatives, but rather serve as additional student support. Space is limited for the experience and registration is required.
Apply for the ORIGINS Experience by July 28, 2023.
