Kelly Mine Experience
ENGAGE ♦ CONNECT ♦ BELONG
August 9-14, 2026
New Mexico Tech welcomes all incoming students to the Kelly Mine Experience, August
9-14, 2026. This essential jumpstart program is provided at no additional cost and
is a required first step in your NMT college journey. Students move into their dorms,
engage in campus life, connect with other students, and start building a sense of
belonging at NMT. Through hands-on transformative experiences, students develop personal and interpersonal skills, leadership,
and academic understanding. Our goal is to create a space for students to develop
self-awareness, grow confidence, build a support system, and link to campus resources
to initiate success at New Mexico Tech.
