STUDENT LIFE
Find your people and make lifelong memories
First Year Experience
Make the most of your college experience! Sheridan’s First Year Experience team hosts events and workshops before you even start classes to help make your transition to college life easier.
Plus: Mark your calendar and plan to join us for New Student Orientation one week before classes start. Orientation is a great way to meet your classmates, get comfortable on campus and learn about all the support services that you have access to as a Sheridan student.
“Orientation was a great chance to meet new students like myself. I made a few friends by attending the event and we are still in contact which feels amazing.”

“Sheridan's Women in Trades and Tech Club helps women to be connected in the trades and know that there's so many more opportunities out there. We talk to grade school students and high school students so that we can get the word out that trades are looking to hire women.”
Tara Tyler (Welding and Fabrication Technician, ’24)
