Students should bring a smart phone, laptop, or tablet in order to register for classes at Orientation. It is recommended that you wear comfortable shoes and casual clothes (June, July, August - it will be hot!). We also recommend that you bring a raincoat and/or umbrella if the forecast calls for rain. Students and parents/guardians should bring money for meals, coffee and soft drinks. Barnes & Noble at Mississippi State will be open throughout the program, as well, for textbook pre-orders, MSU apparel and other items.
