Returning On-Campus College Student Information
We look forward to having you back on campus! Below are the information and necessary forms that must be read and completed before starting classes this spring. Please have these forms done entirely by January 1, 2024. This will allow for a shortened registration time and enable moving into the dorms sooner after arrival.
Please read through each of the sections of the information carefully and complete each form. A registration checklist is available for you to track your progress. You will receive a confirmation email after the successful submission of each form. If you have questions as you go through this page, please contact the Student Life Office (studentlife@faith.edu or 515.422.5651).
The spring orientation schedule is coming soon.
