Other Program Orientations Some programs have welcome and orientation activities that occur at the same time as or in addition to TRU Orientation activities. Please check your
myTRU email and personal email (inbox and junk folders) regularly as that is how you will receive details about these activities. If your program has an orientation or welcome session occurring at the same time as any TRU Orientation activities, your program orientation or welcome session takes priority over TRU Orientation. If your schedule allows you to participate in some but not all TRU Orientation activities, please feel welcome to join for what you’re available for!
