At ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ, we believe that a key to discovering who you are and becoming the person you only dreamed of being starts with a vibrant and exciting campus life. 

Where will you live?

You’ll have a number of options when it comes to where you live, from traditional dormitory rooms to suites to apartment-style housing. No matter what housing you choose, you can be sure that it will be comfortable and modern, and will match the way you like to work, study, live and play.

What will you eat?

At ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ, we believe that food is the foundation for fun. You'll find weekly and monthly special events and promotions at Phins Hospitality. Why? Because we believe that your relationships are strengthened around the table!

What will you do?

The better question is what can’t you do on campus? You’ll be able to pick from clubs and groups to help you meet and connect with fellow Phins who share your interests. You'll also have so many opportunities to discover new interests and passions. Plus thanks to our student programming board, you’ll have events and activities just about every night on campus!

This is a crucial campus-wide event that you should not miss. In fact, it was at this gathering that I first met some of my friends. During orientation, you will be grouped and collaborate with other new freshmen from all across the country! This is an excellent opportunity to participate in team building activities and learn how to step outside of your comfort zone before the semester begins. lemoyne.edu/orientation

Keep in mind that you are sharing a room. Because space is limited, pack as lightly as possible. Bring only the necessities, such as bedding, toiletries, and seasonal clothing. You can always get additional things once you’ve gotten acquainted with your new room (bonus: it’s a great excuse to go shopping with your friends). Remember to bring a pair of shower shoes!Join a club or organization

Campus life at ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ hosts a plethora of fantastic events, with lots of ways to participate. From concerts to trivia nights to guest speakers to large campus-wide gatherings with food trucks and activities to do!

Being open to the unknown is the most essential thing you can do for yourself. Your future self will be grateful. College is an important part of life since it allows you to discover who you truly are, regardless of your background. You’ll also come across and meet individuals from different walks of life. You never know who you’ll meet or what you’ll learn!

Without a doubt, starting college can be overwhelming. However, think of it as a fantastic experience that will allow you to form long-lasting friendships. You can do it!

Our Phins don’t swim alone much like they don’t swim alone in the wild. Wherever you are on campus, there will always be a smiling face looking at you. Even someone who you know is in your class but maybe have not talked to will smile and say hello. There is always someone around to hang out with and familiar faces everywhere to remind you how close knit you will become.”
