K-State Kickoff

Prior to the start of classes all new Wildcats are invited to connect with the incoming class, attend social events, learn K-State traditions, and build a strong foundation to have a successful kickoff to your time as a Wildcat!

What to Expect

  • K-State Kickoff will start Thursday, August 15, 2024 after you have moved in.
  • K-State Kickoff offers tons of events from social to education, required and optional.
  • All students will be assigned a small group lead by a Welcome Ambassador to help them navigate the K-State Kickoff weekend. These small groups provide opportunities to make friends and build a support network. Don't worry, there will be plenty of time to connect with students outside of your small group.
