Welcome to the 2025-26 academic year! We’re so excited to see everybody back on campus and looking forward to the energy of a new school year.

Get into the Bison spirit with the photos below!

New Student Orientation

We welcomed over 200 new freshmen to Gallaudet during New Student Orientation (NSO) festivities. Families wished their students a fond farewell on Move-In Day and the community welcomed the next generation to the campus during the annual Bison Walk.

Graduate Student Orientation

The Gallaudet graduate class keeps growing! The Graduate Student Orientation (GSO) welcomed new masters and doctoral students to their new home.

BisonFest

The campus danced, dunked and dined on the Gallaudet Mall during the annual BisonFest. Students had the opportunity to meet with different campus organizations and academic programs.

JumpStart

Every year, Gallaudet welcomes students who are beginning their American Sign Language (ASL) journeys. JumpStart is an immersive four-week crash course in ASL and Deaf culture. And it creates bonds that last a lifetime!
