New Student Institute

What to Expect at NSI

All new students (freshmen and transfers) participate in New Student Institute at Southern Nazarene University! New Student Institute will help you feel at home, get connected with other students, settle in, and get ready for your first year at SNU!

New Student Institute and Housing Check-In

We want to celebrate this significant transition in your student's life with a two-day event prior to the first day of the Spring 2026 semester.

Spring NSI will be January 5th-6th, 2026.
