New Student Orientation

We are excited to welcome you to Lindenwood! #LUDiscoverYourRoar

LindenFirst Bridge Program

Start your Lindenwood journey with confidence through LindenFirst, our First-Generation Bridge Program! Created for students who are the first in their immediate family to attend college, LindenFirst helps you build connections, gain confidence, and feel at home before the semester begins.

Participants will:

• Move in early
• Explore campus before Welcome Home Weekend
• Connect with fellow first-gen Lions
• Connect with campus staff and resources
• Build skills for a successful transition

Participation is optional; however, students who register are expected to attend all program sessions.

Summer 2026 New Student Orientation (NSO)

Welcome to Summer New Student Orientations at Lindenwood!

We are excited to welcome new students and their supporters to our campus as they embark on their Lindenwood journey. During this time, students will have the opportunity to meet with their academic advisor, Student Financial Services, and Residential Life. Additionally, parents and supporters can attend dedicated sessions designed specifically for them.

We look forward to helping you create your first memorable experiences at Lindenwood. Please note that selecting a Summer Orientation date is mandatory to ensure a smooth Move-In process. Move-in information will be sent to you by Residential Life.
