Summer Connect

At Trent, new students have a unique opportunity to meet other incoming students, connect with their Orientation Leaders, and learn about the services and resources that make Trent a great place to learn before they even arrive on campus. The Summer Connect program starts in August of each year, and connects students and Orientation leaders through the Trent University Mobile App. Students are encouraged to download the Trent University Mobile App from the App Store at the end of July to join their squad, connect with their leaders and peers, and view the entire Orientation Week schedule.  

New students will be contacted during the summer with information about their Squad Group (a community of 30-40 students who will connect prior to the start of the academic semester). This will be through their Trent email and will give them the information they need to prepare for their transition to university. Through the App students can ask questions and learn more about all of Trent benefits. Once Orientation Week begins, students and leaders will meet with their squad group and attend fun, interactive, and educational sessions throughout the week.  

Summer Connect is the perfect opportunity to meet with other new students, connect with upper year Orientation Leaders, and learn valuable information about how to prepare for the academic semester. The deep connections students make during the summer with their peers will enhance their social experience once students arrive to campus.
