Jump Start
Jump Start Applications are now available.
The 2012 Jump Start Program will be August 18-23, 2012
If you just can't wait to get to college, Willamette invites you to "begin before the beginning." These Jump Start opportunities - NSOCO, Ohana, and Steppin' Out - will enable you to meet other new students, explore the scenic beauty of the Pacific Northwest and lend a helping hand in your new community in a smaller, more intimate setting before the Opening Days orientation involving all new students.

Location
All four Jump Start programs will operate out of a base camp located at the 4-H Center, just west of Salem. This will allow participants the opportunity to interact with each other. At Willamette University, you are joining a vital community of learners, and these programs seek to provide initial community-building experiences.
Future Jump Start Dates:
- 2012 - August 18-23
- 2013 - August 17-22
