We direct the transion into UL Lafayee with UNIV 100, a three credit-hour course designed to help rst-year UL Lafayee students transion successfully from high school to university life and academic work. The course has two components: (1) Cajun Connecon, which is a one-day extended introducon to UL Lafayee, to the campus community, and to University-level work and (2) the First-Year Seminar, which then connues for een weeks during a scheduled class me. Beyond academics, OFYE also encourages student and parent involvement on campus, orchestrang the Red Run during the rst home football game of the year and Family Weekend, September 22-24, 2017. OFYE houses one student organizaon, The Big Event, which is a community service organizaon that has organized over 10,000 students to help the Lafayee area since its creaon in 2013. This year The Big Event is moving to the spring semester and will be held Saturday, March 24, 2018. OFYE is also here to serve you, the parents of our college freshmen. Our primary service to parents includes monthly communicaon through our parent newsleer, which includes updates on topics such as university deadlines, campus social life, parental involvement on campus, and ps on how to best support your child while in college.

To aid students academically, ASC oers free tutoring through the Learning Center, located on the second oor of Lee Hall. The Learning Center strives to ensure that all students succeed academically, by oering individual tutoring, group tutoring, online tutoring, and supplemental instrucon. Beyond free tutoring, the Academic Success Center also oers a number of administrave services to students. If your child gets to UL Lafayee and decides to declare or change majors, or wants to talk through the opon of doing so, counselors are readily available. If any student also decides in the course of a semester to withdraw from a class, the ASC is the rst place for them to visit in order to drop a class. Students who are recipients of the TOPS Award are  to aend a TOPS workshop held during Freshman Week (August 14-17). It is important to discuss with your student their TOPS requirements and their parcipaon in this programming to ensure they remain in compliance with guidelines. Students must aend a TOPS Workshop during Freshman Week. The ASC also oers recurring workshops for students throughout the semester. A multude of Success Workshops are provided for students adjusng to the academic and social systems of college life. Should your student face struggles when in college, please encourage him or her to visit Lee Hall in order to get the support and assistance they need to thrive academically and socially here at UL Lafayee.  Follow OFYE on Social Media Office of First-Year Experience 106 Lee Hall 230 Hebrard Blvd. 337-482-6599 Oce of First-Year Experience The “How To” to Beginning College RESOURCES Oce of First-Year Experience Lee Hall, Rm 106 230 Hebrard Blvd. 337-482-6599 (phone) Oce Website ofye@louisiana.edu OFYE Facebook Page Academic Success Center Lee Hall, Rm 115 230 Hebrard Blvd. 337-482-6818 Oce Website asc@louisiana.edu
