Deadline approaching to apply to be an orientation leader

Tuesday, October 19, 2010, By News Staff

The Office of First-Year and Transfer Programs is 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
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; and
• 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.
