XULA New Student Orientation Schedule
New first-year students who are attending Xavier University of Louisiana in the Fall semester will participate in a two-part New Student Orientation program.
Orientation Part One
For Orientation Part I, the Division of Student Affairs has created a virtual townhall series that introduces new students to administrators, departments, and resources found at Xavier. Participating in the virtual townhalls will require a computer, tablet, or smartphone with internet capabilities. If you don’t have access to technology resources, let us know by emailing orientation@shelleyshanks.com so we can make alternative arrangements for you.
Virtual townhalls will be hosted in June and July. The schedule and links will be coming soon to your Xavier email address!
Orientation Part Two
Orientation Part 2 begins with new student move-in that will take place on August 9th, along with a weekend of activities for new students and families, followed by Welcome Week for the incoming freshmen class. Please be on the lookout for more information regarding move-in from the Office of Residential Education and an itinerary of events from the Orientation Team. We look forward to officially welcoming you to the campus this fall and look forward to your arrival.
