KWeek! August 20-24th

K Week, part of the Office for Student Success, welcomes new Wildcats to campus with programs and events designed to help you meet new people and learn about UK traditions and resources. It’s the best way to get started at UK! 

K Week 2025 will take place from Wednesday, August 20th through Sunday, August 24th before the semester begins! 

As the second step in the orientation process, all new undergraduate students are expected to participate in K Week. There are a few key events for all new students, including Big Blue U, Campus Ruckus, and college meetings. Beyond those, there are many, many more events that you can pick and choose from based on your own interests and needs. A schedule of events will be posted on the UK Guides mobile app! 

K Week is one of the biggest annual traditions on campus, and Wildcats say it is an easy way to meet people and start making UK feel like home – we’ll see you there!
