The University of Louisiana Monroe’s first summer session of PREP — Preview, Registration,
and Enrollment Program — is Wednesday and Thursday, June 6-7.
The orientation program is designed to help new students make a smooth transition
to college life at ULM. PREP staff leaders will be on hand to guide and acquaint students
with the ins and outs of university life.
During PREP students will select fall classes, explore the campus and meet their classmates.
They will also meet with faculty and administrators, take placement exams, choose
majors and make course selections.
The goal of PREP is to ensure that students leave with a completed class schedule
for the Fall 2018 semester.
Sessions are limited in size and are first-come-first-served. To attend a PREP session,
participants must complete the online reservation. Then they will receive confirmation
materials and information on check-in via email or U.S. mail. To register for PREP
