Q: How do I buy my books?
A:
You can purchase your books before classes online or in person. The Bookstore will also be open on Saturday, but I’d recommend taking care of everything beforehand. You will use your class schedule to look up the books you will need through the bookstore (you received your class schedule at Academic Orientation). Once at the bookstore, you can view the textbooks by clicking on the "books" tab at the top. It will ask you to enter the course information. You can look up each class in this way and add items to your cart after you select the method/style you prefer (new, used, rental, etc.). You can either purchase them online or pick them up on campus.
Q: What type of computer do I need?
Q: What type of computer do I need?
A: You should get what meets your needs in terms of how you use it, where you use it. We do not have a standard computer or operating system that we recommend. It's completely up to you! Additionally, Ursuline has multiple computer labs, laptops, iPads and printers for our students to use throughout campus. Many students utilize Ursuline's resources while others find they prefer to work on their own device.
Q: I’m a student athlete; will Fall Orientation interfere with practice?
A: The Orientation team has worked with the Coaches to set up times for practice that are part of the Fall Orientation schedule.
Q: Can I be in an orientation group with my friend or roommate?

Q: Does Orientation cost anything?
A: Orientation does not cost anything for the students or parents and family members attending.
Q: I am a commuter student; do I have to attend Fall Orientation?
