MSSU's Southern Kickoff is a one-day orientation event designed to help students and families prepare for the first semester. Our goal is to help ease the transition between your previous school (high school or college) and your future as a Missouri Southern Lion. This is your opportunity to tour our vibrant campus, discover housing options, enroll in classes, and meet faculty, staff, other students, and much more!
