So you got into Scripps… Now What?

Hey everyone!

Congratulations on your acceptance to Scripps, we’re excited to meet all of you! Like many of you, we were ecstatic to attend college but didn’t quite know where to start. How should we begin to get involved in campus life and culture? How do we connect with the other Scripps students? Well, do not fear. Sam and Serena are here!

In this blog post, we will provide a list of resources that helped us get started when we were once lost and confused first-year Scripps students!
