<![CDATA[Islamic boarding schools are educational institutions that play a crucial role in nurturing future generations who are not only intellectually intelligent but also possess strong religious values. The process of adapting new students to the unique and structured rules and culture of an Islamic boarding school is of utmost importance. Inadequate adaptation can hinder students' success in adapting to boarding school life. The research problem focuses on how the Awwalussanah Programme functions as a means of adaptation for new students at the An-Nur Lempuing OKI Islamic Boarding School and the factors influencing the programme's effectiveness. The research objective is to describe and analyse the implementation of the programme in relation to the adaptation process of new students. The research method used is a qualitative approach with a descriptive approach. Data was collected through observation, interviews, and documentation from key informants such as the Head of Education, supervisors, teachers, and new students. Data analysis was conducted through reduction, presentation, verification, and drawing conclusions, with data validity tested using source triangulation and techniques. The results of the study indicate that the Awwalussanah Program is effective as a means of adaptation for new students, although there are challenges such as time constraints and the diversity of students' backgrounds, which influence the adaptation process. This program helps students adjust to the boarding school environment through various orientation activities and mentoring. The Awwalussanah Programme plays a significant role in facilitating the adaptation process for new students at the An-Nur Lempuing OKI Islamic Boarding School, with recommendations for improving time management and adopting an inclusive approach in programme implementation. Despite the challenges, the programme successfully creates a more conducive environment for new students to adapt to boarding school life. ]]>
