Can you picture yourself as an Orientation Advisor?


The New Student Services area of the Office of the Dean of Students is looking for a diverse group of students to develop, plan and execute the 2012 Summer Orientation program.

If you are looking for a fun and rewarding leadership opportunity, working with a diverse and socially conscious group of campus leaders, consider applying to become an Orientation Advisor (OA). OAs are important representatives for all incoming students – they are among the first people new students and families meet!

Interested students should plan to attend one of the following information sessions to obtain an online application:

  • Tuesday, October 11, 2011
    8:30 – 9:30 p.m., Jester Auditorium (JES) A121A
  • Wednesday, October 12, 2011
    5:30 – 6:30 p.m., North Office Building A (NOA) 1.124
  • Sunday, October 16, 2011
    8:30 – 9:30 p.m., Jester Auditorium (JES) A121A

If you are unable to attend one of the above meetings, please contact New Student Services by Wednesday, October 19, 2011, for an appointment to obtain an application.

***Deadline to submit your application online: Wednesday, October 26, 2011***

After submitting your application online, you must sign up to attend Orientation Advisor Selection on Sunday, November 6, 2011. There is an initial application screening process prior to Orientation Advisor Selection Day. If you are not chosen to participate, you will be contacted via email before 5 p.m. on Friday, November 4, 2011.

Orientation Advisor Recruitment and Summer Orientation are coordinated by the New Student Services area of the Office of the Dean of Students. For more information, contact us at 512-471-3304.
