Stampede is the ultimate student-only experience designed to welcome all new Mustangs to the Hilltop. Students beginning classes for the first time in the spring semester will attend a January Stampede and students starting classes for the first time either in the summer or fall semesters will attend Stampede in August.

During Stampede you will have opportunity to make new friends, learn our amazing traditions, explore campus, meet and learn about SMU from current students, prepare for your classes, take part in exciting games and activities, be challenged to expand your worldview and more!
