Event Description
Orientation Leader (OL) Orientation Leaders serve as a crucial component of the New Student Orientation (NSO) Program and are charged with assisting new students and families with their academic, social, and cultural transition to the Drexel University community. In collaboration with other NSO staff members, OLs assist in assimilating new students and families in areas such as academic study, social support skills, and awareness of campus policies, activities, and services.
Orientation Assistant (OA) Orientation Assistants support the New Student Orientation (NSO) Program by serving as panelists, guides, and office assistants during NSO sessions in July and group leaders during New Student Days in September and Family Weekend in November. OAs are trained as Orientation Leaders in the event that an OL can no longer perform his/her duties.
There is one common application for both positions. All OAs will be selected from the OL applicant pool.
