Students
All new students will attend one of the three SOAR sessions offered during
the summer. During SOAR I and II, you will stay in a residence hall along
with Orientation Leaders (OLs), upper-class students who serve as volunteer
guides throughout the entire freshman experience. During the SOAR
III session, you will move into your assigned room for the academic year.
Parents
You will attend a very special orientation program. While students are
taking their assessments and meeting with advisors, parents participate in
our Parent Orientation Program. Information sessions are available on
everything from financial aid, campus security, and health services to
advice on "letting go" and making the transition to being a UE parent. You
will also meet current UE parents and students and hear firsthand about
their experiences with the University. Special meetings are set aside for
parents, academic department chairs, and advisors, so you can be as much a
part of the University family as your student. We believe that after
attending SOAR you will be much more knowledgeable about the University and
feel more comfortable about where your son or daughter will be spending the
next four years! The SOAR fee for parents is based on the package chosen and
should be included on your student’s registration form. The
following parent packages from which you can choose are:
Option 1 - For parents staying off campus or attending
the August SOAR. Includes one lunch buffet, one breakfast buffet,
receptions, and materials. Individual $25; Couple $40
Option 2 - (Not available during August SOAR) -
Thursday arrival. Includes UE lodging for two nights, two
breakfasts and one lunch buffet, receptions, and materials. Individual
$65; Couple $100
Option 3 - (Not available during August SOAR) -
Friday morning arrival. Includes UE lodging for one night, one
lunch buffet, one breakfast buffet, receptions, and materials.
Individual $50; Couple $85
