freshman week
New student introduction
Freshman week is the period at the beginning of a college term devoted to orienting new students—campus tours, dormitory move-in, introductory events, and social activities before classes begin.
Also called orientation week or, in British universities, freshers' week.
I met my roommate during freshman week.
