Tech Guide, 2008-2009

Congratulations on your acceptance to Michigan Tech! As you get ready for college, you are preparing for one of life’s most exciting transitions, and many important details require your attention. The Tech Guide highlights the things you need to do before you arrive and hopefully will answer many of the questions you may already have. This guide provides information on everything from housing and financial aid, to course scheduling, Orientation, and more. We’ve provided you with a week-by-week calendar to give you all the important dates you need to create the future at Michigan Tech. We’ve also included helpful hints, telephone numbers, some insight from current Tech students, and websites for easy reference.

When you see the symbol to the left, it denotes an important date or action item. You don't want to miss a thing, so please read this booklet carefully. You can also find the Tech Guide in PDF format at www.techguide.mtu.edu/TechGuide.pdf This may take a moment to download and open due to the size of the file.

If you have questions, please call COMPASS at 1-888-688-1885 or compass@mtu.edu. We're here to help.
