What is WOW?
The Week of Welcome is Cal Poly’s incoming student orientation program and offers new students and their families a successful transition into the college experience. Most students participated in WOW as a first year or incoming transfer students; however, all students are welcome to attend spring training. A student leader’s job is to provide an introduction to academic and social resources, encourage awareness, and promote relationships with the campus and community environment.

How do I get involved?
Come to the first Spring Training meeting the first Tuesday night of Spring Quarter. It starts at 7 p.m., but come early to miss all the lines.

Spring Training
Spring training is a 10 Week Training and Evaluation program during Spring Quarter, and includes meetings from 7-10 p.m. every Tuesday night, two mandatory weekend 1-day activities (LIT Workshop and Day in the Sun), and one Freeday (various days and times).

Leader sign-up begins on the My Cal Poly Portal starting in early March. Training begins on the first Tuesday night of spring quarter, usually around 6:15 p.m. for sign-in.
