Latin for “I begin; I undertake” (a certain activity, enterprise, business) Ineō is the name given to your orientation at Schulich. Ineō encompasses many different activities designed to prepare you for the journey ahead, motivate you to succeed, and help you feel connected to your new community.

Mandatory Ineō Orientation length and activities vary by program, but you can expect to meet your program director, connect with your new classmates, and familiarize yourself with different services and supports available to you at Schulich, including sessions for international students adjusting to student life within the Canadian context.

MBA students will be invited to Launch Week events within Ineō Orientation, designed to prepare you for the core Year 1 MBA curriculum. Conduct a case analysis in teams, develop career skills and grow your team-building skills off campus. You will be sent dates and registration details before the start of term.

A Passport York account is required to register for all orientations.
