Is orientation mandatory?
YES! During Orientation you will be divided up into small groups. All group meetings are required, including the evoLUtion seminar. If students do not attend the evoLUtion seminar meetings their Spring registration may be delayed. This is our chance to show students the ropes to college life and provide them with multitudes of resources to help them succeed at Lehigh, both in and out of the classroom. Students will meet faculty, upper-class student leaders, an academic advisor and learn about resources available while making new friends!
It is very strongly encouraged, although it is not mandatory. There is an abundance of information that needs to be passed on to new students with orientation being the primary way of providing this information to them. In addition, students will schedule classes and have their pictures taken for their campus ID cards. The $100 orientation fee will be assessed whether or not the student participates in orientation.
