## Get in Touch

Approaching Stanford is the process from May to September that guides all new undergraduates in the transition to life on The Farm. The process culminates with New Student Orientation (NSO) when you move to campus in September.

We welcome questions from incoming students and families throughout the summer as you prepare for Stanford. Students, remember to use your @stanford.edu email account whenever contacting University offices so that we can verify your identity.

*Approaching Stanford is not the admission office. If you are a prospective student applying to Stanford, please contact the [Office of Undergraduate Admission](https://admission.stanford.edu/contact/index.html), as we are unable to answer any admission questions.*
