This is applicable to high school students only that are planning to join the Health and Science neighborhood.

Information for these tests will be emailed to you, so please be on the lookout.

As an MBU student, you have access to FREE, 24/7 mental healthcare services through the virtual health and well-being platform, TimelyCare — designed especially for college students.

Prior to move in, all undergraduates will be invited to a Summer Orientation on June 27 or July 25. You can look forward to fun and informative activities that will allow you to review your Baldwin Bound checklist items and meet other members of the class of 2030.
