Orientation Leader Opportunities
Office of New Student & Family Transitions
Orientation Leaders make a busy day easier to follow.
These Augusta University students welcome groups, give practical directions, share a student perspective, and connect new Jaguars and their supporters with the right campus staff.
The Orientation Leader program is planned, hosted, and executed by the Office of New Student & Family Transitions.

What the role looks like
On a program day, Orientation Leaders help the team keep students informed and moving in the right direction. The work includes:
- reviewing the day’s plan and updates with NSFT staff;
- welcoming students, families, and supporters;
- leading a group from one part of the program to the next;
- explaining what happens next in clear, practical language;
- sharing an honest student perspective without guessing; and
- bringing questions to the staff member or campus office that can answer them.
The exact schedule changes by program. Listening, communicating changes, and staying connected with the team are part of the work each time.
How good judgment shows up
When you know
Answer clearly, keep the explanation focused, and make sure the student knows what to do next.
When you do not know
Say so. Then find the staff member or office that owns the answer instead of guessing.
When plans change
Stay with your group, communicate the update, and help the larger team keep the program moving.
