Begin Your Panther Journey
Welcome to the LC Panther Community! Now that you're a Panther, it's time to get more acquainted with campus community, the local community, and prepare for your LC journey. At New Student Orientation (NSO), you will meet faculty and staff, talk with an academic advisor about your class schedule, register for classes, learn more about LC support resources, and build relationships with your future classmates.
Whether you are an incoming first year student, transfer student, or dual enrollment student, we will provide answers to your questions in order to confidently transition into this new journey. NSO is the first step of many during this transition, and the entire LaGrange College community is committed to ensuring your success from day one. We look forward to supporting you as you thrive as a new student and empower you to leave your paw print on The Hill.
First-Year New Student Orientation is a mandatory program for all new students entering in the fall semester. The NSO program for first-year students is an overnight experience, where you will stay on campus, engage in campus activities, and meet your classmates! You will also register for classes and learn what it means to be an LC Panther.
