Welcome Class of 2030!
M1 ORIENTATION – Monday, July 20 – Friday, July 24, 2026
Brody Medical Sciences Building, 600 Moye Blvd, Greenville, NC 27834-4354
M1 Orientation Schedule 2026
Parking for Orientation
On Monday July 20, parking will be open (no registration needed) in the B lots off North Campus Loop, to the right as you enter from Moye Blvd. After parking registration opens during the first week of August, you will need to be registered to park here. Students can purchase permits beginning Tuesday, August 11, at 8 a.m. via Pirate Port. ECU uses a “Plate to Permit System,” using license plate recognition software in lieu of a physical permit. Instead of parking decals for vehicles, your vehicle license plate(s) will be registered with ECU Parking, and the fee paid for the specific parking zone (B4). More information on parking and how to register your vehicle: https://parking.ecu.edu/students
Step Up to Brody
Step Up to Brody is a self-paced virtual module designed to support a strong start at Brody! The goal is to strengthen your academic, personal, & professional/leadership skills. The program is facilitated by the Office of Student Success & Wellness (OSSaW) and is housed in the Canvas platform. Over the summer, OSSaW will email admitted students an invitation to accept the BSOM Class of 2030 Step Up to Brody module.
All M1 students are expected to complete Step Up to Brody requirements, including the virtual module & a 1:1 meeting with an OSSaW team member. The module + meeting must be completed before M1 Orientation begins. For any questions/assistance, you’re welcome to contact Dr. Alyssa Arnold, Senior Academic Support Services Manager in OSSaW at ArnoldAL15@ecu.edu
Are you wondering how to successfully balance school, work, and personal life?
BSOM Counselors invite you to join us for a virtual Meet & Greet session. Meetings may be scheduled using the link below and will be held in a group format with a maximum of six participants per session. THESE SESSIONS ARE NOT MANDATORY. Meetings are available through July 17th.
These sessions are designed to provide an opportunity to learn more about the services and support available to students as they begin their academic journey. Please note that these meetings are intended for outreach and informational purposes only and are not a substitute for personal counseling services. Individual counseling services will become available once courses begin.
We look forward to connecting with you and helping you prepare for a healthy and successful academic journey.
