Information for New Students Fall 2010

A Word of Welcome...

Welcome to Roosevelt Academy, Class of 2013!

Dear prospective student,

On the 23th of August your career at the Roosevelt Academy will officially start. Although class will start the week after, you will be introduced to the Roosevelt Academy and your fellow students in the IntRAweek. With this letter we would like to cordially invite you, as a future RA student, to this week.

The IntRAweek is the week in which you will be introduced to all different aspects of being a student at RA. In this week you will register as a member of the Roosevelt Academy Student Association, get introduced to student life at RA, meet your tutor and receive your schedule. The official program will be handed out to you at the opening of the introduction week.

The IntRAweek will take place from the 23rd until the 28th of August. This week will kick off with an opening in the Burgerzaal, the old city hall, on Monday the 23rd of August at 8:45.  After the introduction the registration will take place and you will meet your IntRAweek-parents who will guide you through the week. Important things to bring with you are a copy of your ID, €35 in cash and a MP3 player.

Please contact us if you have any questions concerning IntRAweek or other matters relating to your start at RA by sending an e-mail to .

We look forward welcoming you at the Roosevelt Academy!

Sincerely,

Sam de Vlieger
Chair Roosevelt Academy Student Association

Student Office Information

Dear new student,

We look forward to welcoming you on campus in August 2010. However, before we can do so, there are several things that need to be arranged. We have compiled a booklet for you that tells you exactly what to do prior to and upon arrival at RA. Please read the information carefully and determine which sections apply to you.

This very very important booklet can be found HERE

Housing Affairs Council

Another very important student body is the Housing Affairs Council. They exist to make your life easier (really, that's that their motto!) when it comes to housing at RA. Please read their letter to all new students HERE
