Welcomers

Welcome Week is a program coordinated by a group of energetic students called orientation leaders (OLs) who want your first week at the University of Evansville to be exciting and fun. This program includes informational sessions, food, volunteer opportunities, games, and much more. All new students arrive at the University four days before classes begin for this fun-filled event. Students will be divided into small groups and will be assigned to an OL. The OL will guide students through the transition into college. This program is required for all entering freshmen, so pre-registration is not required.

Traditional freshmen do not need to pre-register for this event. (Transfer students may opt to attend Welcome Week by pre-registering at STAR or contact the Center for Student Engagement at 812-488-2371. International students may opt to attend Welcome Week by contacting the International Services and Cultural Engagement office at 812-488-2279 to pre-register.)

Meet the Orientation Leaders (OLs)

You might have met some of our OLs when you were on campus for student orientation. These students were selected as OLs because they are energetic, informed, and ready to help as you get started at UE. When you check in, you will be placed in a small group of freshmen with an OL as the leader. Together, you will attend activities that are designed to help you feel at home on campus. Get to know the OLs by checking out their fun profiles!
