ADVANCE Orientation Program
Want to get the inside scoop on campus living and get a head start on settling in to Lipscomb and making new friends?

Of course you do!

So join us at ADVANCE, our summer orientation program for first-time freshmen. ADVANCE 2008 takes place on June 23 - 24, July 24 - 25, and August 18 - 19. Your ADVANCE registration packet will be mailed to you in late March or early April. If you lose the packet, don't worry. You can also register online.

We developed ADVANCE -- two solid days of fun and bonding -- to help new students get the most out of their experience at Lipscomb. During ADVANCE, you'll learn about campus life, receive academic counseling, enroll for classes and make friends with other incoming freshmen. You'll participate in fun and informative activities hosted by members of our Quest Orientation Team. You'll spend the night in a residence hall, staying close to the action and getting a sneak peak at life at Lipscomb.

Residence Life
When you're admitted to Lipscomb, your acceptance packet should also contain forms for housing reservation and health information. To reserve your residence hall room, please complete and return the housing reservation form, along with the required deposit.

All freshmen are required to live on campus. With five different residence halls, you will have several options for your residential experience. To learn more about Residence Life, click here.
