Once a first-time freshman is admitted to UL Lafayette, the student must participate in one of the New Student Orientation sessions held on campus during the summer. Orientation, lasting two days, will acquaint students with the University’s academic and social life, as well as with some of the students, faculty, and staff who will help guide them as they begin their college experience. The myriad of orientation activities include speaking with an academic advisor, registering for the first semester’s classes, learning about financial aid opportunities and requirements, and meeting other new students.
First-time freshmen who participate in orientation sessions during the summer will register for their first semester’s classes during orientation. Continuing, transfer, and re-entry students register during designated registration periods (generally late October/early November for the spring semester and late March/early April for summer and fall semesters). All students register through ULink. Information regarding registration processes is available on the Registrar’s website.
Additional information about New Student Orientation, including the schedule of sessions and registration information, is available from the Office of Orientation or by phone at (337) 482-1391.
