Opening of School Q&A


At the Opening of School, where can I…

…find the opening of school schedule?
The deans’ office has created an online calendar listing events specific to the opening of school. This calendar displays all events happening in those first few days and allows you to filter the information to only the events you need to see. View this opening of school calendar. Your opening of school schedule will also be available on your myMilton page.

…get my class schedule?
Class schedules can be accessed from your child’s myMilton page the week before registration, pending the School’s receipt of all required forms. If your child has problems viewing or printing his or her schedule from myMilton during registration, please contact the Help Desk at 617-898-1767.

…pass in my health forms?
Health forms should have been returned by mail over the summer. If you have not mailed them, be sure to bring your health forms with you to registration in the Schwarz Student Center. Students will not be able to attend classes or participate in athletics until the forms are on file with the Health Center.

…buy my textbooks?
You may purchase textbooks and other required supplies in Wigglesworth Hall on Tuesday, September 8, and Wednesday, September 9, between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. All required textbooks will be boxed for your child in advance of your arrival. At the textbook counter, please provide your child’s name and class year, and we will present you with a box containing all of the books your child’s teachers have assigned for the semester. (Textbooks are teacher-specific, not course-specific.) You can then decide which books you would like to purchase. You can also order your textbooks online once your child has received his or her course schedule, and we encourage you to do so, at http://milton.bncollege.com. If ordering online, you will still pick up your pre-ordered books in Wigglesworth Hall during the opening of school. The bookstore in the lower level of Warren Hall will be open throughout orientation, and you can purchase Milton clothing and gifts items there.

…find information about banking?
Banking representatives will be on campus during registration.

…get my student identification card?
You may pick up your student identification card at registration in the Schwarz Student Center.

…get my bus identification?
You may pick up your bus identification tag at registration in the Schwarz Student Center.
