ABOUT FRESHMEN ORIENTATION

Freshmen Orientation (FO) is SMU’s largest freshmen event. Not only do freshmen get properly inducted into SMU, FO serves as great opportunity for freshmen to mingle with peers from different schools and undergo a wide range of activities hosted by our CCA Clubs and Societies.

As an event under SMUSA, we recruit an Organising Committee with diverse capabilities every year to plan Freshmen Orientation.

FRESHMEN ORIENTATION MOVES ONLINE (FOMO)

Run 1: 21 - 24 July 2020, Tue - Fri

Run 2: 27 - 30 July 2020, Mon - Thu

Calling all freshmen of 2020, Orientation is here! And this year, we move online! Freshmen Orientation Moves Online (FOMO) will take place on a microsite. There will be two runs, each run is a 4-day programme.

​

​

As an integral part of the freshmen and your undergraduate experience, FOMO is a key event you do not want to miss out on. Head over to FOMO to discover, network and have fun! You will get to go on a virtual tour around SMU campus, learn fun facts about SMU, attend webinars to ask questions about student life and your faculty, enjoy games with fellow freshmen and make friends with them, discover eating hotspots around SMU and even meet SMOO SMOO, our friendly SMU mascot!

This year’s theme is SMOOmanji, a cyberspace jungle where thrilling adventures await. The SMU Totem Gem, a precious jewel that holds SMOOmanji’s power of bringing us together, has been stolen by the villain Corona. Let’s come together as one freshman cohort to save SMOOmanji!

Play games! Answer quizzes! Join contests! And stand a chance to win attractive prizes such as iPads! Are you feeling FOMO yet?

*You will receive an email from the Organising Committee via your SMU email account upon matriculation. Do check in to find out which run you are in. See you at FOMO soon!
