The Office of First-Year and Transfer Programs are now accepting applications for the 2011-2012 Orientation Leader Team! An Orientation Leader (OL) is an ambassador for Syracuse Welcome to help incoming students transition to Syracuse University. They assist with move-in, help in planning large scale events, and serve as a resource for all Orientation and Syracuse related questions. Orientation Leaders must work well in a team, possess strong communication skills, be responsible, punctual, and enthusiastic about SU. OLs cannot be Resident Advisors (RAs) or Peer Advisors due to the conflicting time commitments. Orientation Leaders are also expected to come back to campus early to receive training.
Orientation leaders have to meet a minimum set of requirements in order to be offered a position. Each applicant must:
• Be a full-time Syracuse University undergraduate student
• Maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.5 or higher, which must be
held through the Spring and Summer semesters
• Be in good judicial standing
Applications can be found online at http://orientation.syr.edu. They must be submitted by Thursday, Oct. 21 at 4 p.m. No late applications will be accepted.
