Think About It Program
As part of the transition into your first year at Mount Union, all new students are required to complete Think About It, an online alcohol, drug, and sexual misconduct prevention and education program. The interactive program is designed to help you to make healthy choices. We think that you'll enjoy going through the program and that it will give you some useful pointers and advice. Part 1 of the program must be completed by August 22, 2016.
 
An email directly from the Think About It program was sent to your Mount Union email on Friday, so be sure to check that out to learn how to log-in and complete the course.
 
If you have any questions about Think About It, please feel free to contact the Office of Alcohol, Drug, and Wellness Education at (330) 823-4978. Enjoy the rest of your summer, and we look forward to seeing you on campus in a few short weeks!
Fall 2016 Transportation and Arrival
The deadline to request transportation for Fall 2016 arrivals is August 1. This service is free to all international and out-of-state students and includes transportation to and from the Akron-Canton Airport (CAK), the Canton Bus Station, and the Alliance Amtrak Station. More detailed information about transportation, including approved arrival and travel dates, can be found online. Please be sure to visit this site, as you must complete a transportation request form in order for your transportation to be provided. After submitting your request, you will receive a confirmation email verifying your pick up time.
