Ahead of the Herd (AOTH) 2026

Your first day at ULethbridge shouldn’t feel like your first day.

Ahead of the Herd is your chance to explore campus, meet your people, and figure things out before classes begin.

• Spend the day with your mentors:
• Explore campus and find your way around
• Meet your future classmates
• Try hands-on booths, meet your professors, and ask your questions
• Learn what your program is really like
• Discover supports and where to go when you need help

There will be games, activities, and prizes throughout the day, so expect a fun, high-energy experience.

Families are part of the day too, with sessions to help them understand the transition and how to support you.

You’ll be on the move across campus, so wear comfortable clothing and footwear.

Show up in the fall already knowing your way around — and already feeling like you belong.
