Join us for Summer Splash
Summer Splash is an optional experience for incoming first year students. Students will have the opportunity to meet future classmates, stay the night in one of our first year residence halls, explore JAX like a local, and enjoy all that campus has to offer without the pressure of classes! This overnight experience is for incoming first year students only.
Here's what you have to look forward to:
- Small group activities with your Summer Splash leaders and future classmates
- An off-campus excursion to explore one of Jacksonville’s beautiful beaches.
- Get familiar with campus during our campus-wide ManHunt to find our mascot, Dunkin the Dolphin.
