First Thing’s First
BEFORE YOU ARRIVE...
Each section of the SOAR booklet contains
information about the SOAR event. Please review
these sections carefully to ensure you are prepared
prior to your SOAR event date. This will ensure that
you are adequately prepared to maximize your
SOAR experience and also ensure that your
check-in process in August is as quick and efficient
as possible!
ARRIVING ON CAMPUS...
Upon arriving, proceed directly to the residence
hall parking lots (between buildings #17 and #18
on the campus map). You do not need a parking
pass. Students will enter Kenan Hall (map #17)
adn parents/advocates will enter Hillman-Morris
Hall (map #18). Staff will be available to get you
checked in and show you to your room.
ACCOMMODATIONS...
Students will be paired according to gender with
another student and will stay in Kenan Hall.
Parents/advocates will be in a single room, sharing
a bathroom with a same-gender parent. Should
you decide to bring more than one parent/family
member, please know that you will be charged
$100 per person. Both student and parent/
advocate will need to bring a pillow, blanket, and
a sleeping bag, or a set of extra-long twin sheets,
towels and toiletries. You will have some time to set
up your rooms prior to lunch. Please note: these are
residence hall rooms - they do not have a television.
HURRICANE ADVISORS...
Hurricane Advisors are returning students who
serve during SOAR events. These are student
leaders who recall the importance of their first
experience on campus and wish to help make your
first experience a positive one as well!
The Hurricane Advisors will serve as team leaders
for you during the SOAR event and each new
student will be assigned to a Hurricane Advisor.
They are happy to answer any questions and lend
a helping hand. If you find that you are interested
in becoming a Hurricane Advisor for the next
academic year, recruitment will occur in the Spring

appointment with his/her Financial Aid Counselor.

and parent’s 2012 federal tax returns and both the
student’s and parent’s FAFSA pin number. Financial

Placement Testing Information
All new students are required to participate in placement testing. New students who have a SAT
verbal score of 400 or higher are not required to take the reading placement test. The sentence
skills test is used to determine composition placement and the math test is used to determine the
math course placement.
If a student has transfer work, he/she is still requested to take the placement test so the college
will have placement information. However, transfer work will supercede the placement scores and
the student may proceed to the next level of coursework.
The placement scores, the high school transcript, SAT/ACT scores, and records of any transfer work
are compiled into an “advising folder” and the advisor who assists the new student with registration
will have access to this information to help make the most appropriate schedule with the student.
Prior to the administration of the placement tests, students will participate in a test-taking
strategies workshop. This workshop is designed to help them maximize their performance on the
tests.
Any student who needs accommodations for placement testing must have disability
documentation sent to the Office of Learning Support and Disability Services (OLSDS),
Taft 112, prior to testing. This documentation should include an IEP or 504 Plan as well as any
testing that was done to create this plan.
For questions, please contact Karen Martin (919) 497-3236 or kmartin@louisburg.edu.
Students are reminded of the following policies regarding placement testing:
1. Pencils will be provided to the students for testing. Students will only be allowed to use
calculators that are provided by Louisburg College.
2. Students are NOT allowed to use a dictionary, thesaurus, cell phone, ipod, or other electronic
multimedia device while taking placement tests. Students can use a scientific calculator during
math placement test.
3. Every student will be required to take the Sentence Skills placement test (used to assess
writing skills) and the algebra placement test.
4. Based on the score earned on the SAT or ACT, some students will be asked to complete a third
placement test to determine their reading comprehension level.
5. College transfer students are also required to complete placement testing.
6. Scores earned on placement tests will determine the courses (developmental or college
courses) for which students will be allowed to register.
7. There will be no makeup tests allowed for placement testing, so take your time and do your best!

How much does it cost to go to school at Louisburg
College?
2013-14 charges for a residential student are
$25,370 (tuition, fees, room, meal plan, and books).
2013-14 charges for a commuter student are
$15,540 (tuition, fees, and books).
Can I apply for financial aid as an independent
student?
The federal government requires parent tax
information on the FAFSA unless students meet
specific criteria that establish independent status.
The most common reasons students are considered
independent are:
Student has a legal guardian
You are age 24 or older
You are married
Active Military Duty
Parents are deceased
Student is a veteran of the U.S. Armed Services
You have children who receive more than half their
support from the student during the school year.
Can I be independent if my parents do not claim
me on their tax return?
No. Unless students meet one of the FAFSA criteria
that establish an independent status, parent
information must be included.
What if I have no contact with my parent?
Please contact the Office of Financial Aid to
discuss your situation.
Is there a deadline for applying for financial aid?
We encourage students to file by March 15. Some
financial aid is limited, so filing early means there
is a better chance to receive some of the limited
funding.
What if my tax return will not be completed until
later in the year?
With a reasonable idea of income, the FAFSA may
be filed using estimated income information.
What is an EFC?
EFC stands for “Expected Family Contribution.”
After the FAFSA is processed using the federal
methodology formula, the EFC number is
calculated. This is the amount a family could be
expected to have available to contribute toward
the student’s education.
Do I have to fill anything out to receive the
financial aid I was awarded?
Yes. All forms included with your financial aid
award letter must be completed and returned to
the Office of Financial Aid as well as completion
of required items on-line.
12

What if I do not have enough financial aid to
meet my cost of attendance?
For dependent students, parent PLUS Loans are
available to help with educational expenses, up
to the cost of attendance. Dependent students
whose parents are denied the PLUS Loan may
be eligible for additional federal unsubsidized
student loan funds. Parents must apply for the
PLUS Loan and be denied for the student to
become eligible for additional student loan funds.
Every year, the student must file the renewal
Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
Louisburg College Code: 002943.
If your student receives a scholarship from
an outside source, you must inform our office as
soon as possible so we can update your awards.
To ensure that funds are applied accurately, the
scholarship check should contain the student’s full
name.
Why didn’t I get a Pell Grant?
Federal Pell Grants are awarded based on federal
eligibility requirements and students’ FAFSA
information. The EFC range for a Pell Grant is
0-5081. Students whose EFC is out of the Pell
Grant range do not qualify.
Why don’t I have a financial aid package?
Have you completed the 2013-2014 FAFSA? Did
you list the correct federal school code (002943)
on the FAFSA? If not, return to the FAFSA and add
our school code. Did you and your parents sign
the FAFSA with your PIN numbers? The FAFSA will
be rejected if signatures are not submitted.
Why was I selected for a process called
Verification?
The Department of Education requires all colleges
verify data of certain financial aid applicants. Files
are randomly selected by the federal processor.
What happens if I withdraw from a class or
classes?
Financial aid is awarded with the expectation that
students will complete the semester for which
aid was awarded. Students who are considering
dropping classes, or withdrawing from Louisburg
College, should contact their financial aid advisor
to discuss the matter. In order to continue to
receive federal funds students must be making
satisfactory progress toward their degree.
All students have a Louisburg College E-mail
account. It is very important that students check
this e-mail at least once a week. This office sends
most of its notifications to students by e-mail to
the LC address. Students receive notice whenever
documents are needed, signatures are required,
and changes are made to their awards. It is the
student’s responsibility to provide changes to
addresses, e-mail, and/or phone numbers.
13
If you are interested in outside scholarship
sources, check out www.fastweb.com and cfnc.org
(for NC students).
The parent, as well as the student, needs a
Federal Personal Identification (PIN) to sign the
FAFSA and MPN on-line. You can visit the website
www.pin.ed.gov to request a PIN or a duplicate PIN.
If you have been awarded Federal Work-Study,
you must apply for a job, be hired by a department,
and turn in a timesheet at the the end of each
month. Students are paid monthly by direct
deposit. More information will be provided
regarding this program at a later time.
Are you a veteran of the U.S. Armed Forces?
Are you the dependent of a veteran whose 100%
disability is service related? Are you the dependent
of a veteran whose death was service related?
Are you a parent who transferred benefits to
a dependent? If so, and you are interested in
receiving VA Education Benefits, contact Vickie
Fleming, Louisburg College’s VA Certifying Official.
(vfleming@louisburg.edu)
The student’s right to privacy:
All financial aid records and data submitted with
the student’s application for financial aid are
treated as confidential information and are subject
to disclosure requirements under the Family
Educational Right to Privacy Act (FERPA). This
means that the parent must be authorized by the
student to access their information. We cannot
share your student’s information with anyone
without such a document. Your student must
submit a signed FERPA form, identifying those
persons with whom we can discuss their financial
aid information in detail.

HOW FINANCIAL AID WORKS
Financial need is determined using information you and your parents supply when you complete
and submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The information you provide
on the FAFSA is processed using a Federal Methodology (FM) established by the United States
Congress. The FM calculates your Expected Family Contribution (EFC), i.e., the amount you and
your family are expected to contribute toward your education. When you complete a FAFSA,
renewal FAFSA, or electronic FAFSA, the federal processor will send you an acknowledgment that
your application was processed and your EFC. The federal processor electronically transmits the
analysis of the data you submitted to each college you specified on the FAFSA.
Louisburg College determines your financial need by subtracting your EFC (Expected Family
Contribution) from the cost of the college.
Example:
Louisburg College
Cost of Attendance 25,370
- Expected Family Contribution 3,400
= Financial Need 21,970
YOUR FINANCIAL AID PACKAGE
Once we receive the results of your FAFSA, we will create your financial aid package based on
your financial need. It is Louisburg’s policy to award scholarships and grants first, followed by
loans for which you qualify.
Students receive a Financial Aid Award letter outlining the financial aid being offered. This
notice will include general information about the awards and forms and instructions required to
complete the process of accepting the awards.
SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES
While the process of determining financial aid eligibility is basically the same for all applicants,
there is some flexibility for special circumstances. Your financial aid counselor determines
whether your special circumstances merit changes in the data elements which determine your
Expected Family Contribution. Additional information will be required to document your special
circumstances. Situations which might merit special circumstances consideration include:
1. Reduction of income due to loss of Child Support, Alimony, and/or Social Security
Benefits.
2. Loss or reduction of the household income due to death, permanent disability, and/or
separation/divorce (for independent students or parents of dependent students).
3. Reduction of earned income in the current year due to loss of employment.
If you feel you have any special circumstances that might affect the amount you and your family
are expected to contribute, please talk with your financial aid counselor.
14

DIRECT LOAN INFORMATION
Students who have been awarded a Federal Direct Loan must complete a number of steps to
complete the process.
Step 1 - Students must accept or decline their awards. If you wish to accept the loan(s) offered,
continue to step 2. If you wish to decline all or any loan, please write decline by the award,
sign and return the award letter to the Office of Financial Aid. If no action is taken, the loans
may be cancelled.
Step 2 - Students who are borrowing for the first time must sign a Master Promissory Note (MPN).
The Department of Education (the lender) has a website students may use to electronically
sign MPNs (www.studentloans.gov). To sign electronically, students need their Federal
Personal Identification Number (PIN) used to submit the Federal Application for Student Aid
(FAFSA). A duplicate or replacement PIN may be requested via the PIN website
(www.pin.ed.gov). The MPN remains valid for ten (10) years, as long as there has been a
disbursement from the loan within 12 months from the date the note is signed.
Step 3 - Complete On-line Loan Entrance Counseling. First time student loan borrowers are required
to complete loan entrance counseling. The requirement may be completed on-line,
(www.studentloans.gov).
Step 4 - For Parent Borrowers:
Parent borrowers seeking PLUS Loans must complete and return the Institutional
Application Federal Direct Plus Loan. This information is submitted to the Department of
Education for credit approval. Parent PLUS borrowers must also sign a Master Promissory
Note. The parent must sign the MPN electronically via the MPN website at
www.studentloans.gov. If a parent’s credit application is denied, the student may be
considered for an additional unsubsidized direct loan up to $4000.
Quick Checklist for Direct Loan Borrowers at Louisburg College:
____ Have I (student) signed a Master Promissory Note as required by the
Department of Education at www.studentloans.edu?
____ Have I (student) completed the required Direct Loan Entrance Counseling
session on-line at www.studentloans.gov?
____ If I (parent) am applying for credit approval as a Parent PLUS Borrower, did I
complete and return the Institutional Application for Federal DIrect Plus Loan?

counselor know as soon as possible, and make sure to provide proper documentation prior to the
start of the semester to ensure acknowledgement on your tuition bill. Examples of Third Party Billing
are as follows:
Outside-Funded Scholarships
Vocational Rehabilitation
Veteran Affairs Benefits

FINANCIAL AID
It is extremely important to complete your FAFSA before you attend a SOAR event. Once your FAFSA
has been received and processedby our Financial Aid office, you will receive an award letter. This
award letter will list all of your financial aid that you will receive for the entire academic year. If
your financial aid does not cover the total costs appearing on your bill then you must pay the
difference by the payment due dates.

Student Life
IMMUNIZATIONS
Students will need to supply documentation showing satisfactory completion of all immunizations as
listed in the chart below. Students are required to supply documentation to the Department of Student
Life prior to check-in on August 19, 2013 to prevent undue delays in their check-in process. Your
immunizations need to be submitted via fax or mailed to the Department of Student Life. If you were a
North Carolina high school student, your records may have been submitted with your transcripts; it is still
your responsibility to ensure your records are complete and up to date. All students are required to comply
with state law regarding immunizations.
North Carolina Statute G.S. :130A-155.1 states that: “No person shall attend a college or
university, whether public, private, or religious, unless a Certificate of Immunization or a record of
immunization from a high school located in North Carolina indicating that the person has received
immunizations required by G.S. :130A-152 is presented to the college or university. For out-of-state
students, a Certificate of Immunization or a high school record indicating that the person has received
immunizations is required to attend a college or university in North Carolina. The person shall present
a certificate or record of immunization on or before the date the person first registers for a quarter
or semester during which the student will reside on the campus or first registers for more than four
traditional day credit hours to the registrar of the college or university. If a certificate or record of
immunization is not in the possession of the college or university on the date of first registration, the
college or university shall present a notice of deficiency to the student. The student shall have 30
calendar days from the date of the student’s first registration to obtain the required immunization.
If immunization requires a series of doses and the period necessary to give the vaccine at standard
intervals extends beyond the date of the first registration, the student shall be allowed to attend the
colelge or university upon written certification by a physician that the standard series is in progress.
The physician shall state the time period needed to complete the series. Upon termination of this time
period, the college or university shall not permit the person to continue in attendance unless the required
immunizations has been obtained.”
Your immunization records need to be submitted via fax or mailed to the Department of Student Life.

Campus and Residence Life
Living in the residence halls affords you an opportunity to grow and find meaning through new friendships,
experiences, and participation in a community. We firmly believe the residence halls are more than just
places to sleep. They are places to live and learn.
The Residence Life Staff at Louisburg College understands that you will spend almost half of your time
at Louisburg in the residence halls. Therefore, we realize that this is a wonderful opportunity to enhance
your college experience through educational and social programming that will complement your formal
classroom learning.
Your safety is of the utmost importance. Therefore, we have 6 full-time, professional Residential Life Staff
members as well as Campus Police available to respond to your needs on a 24-hour basis. Additionally,
Resident Assistants -student leaders- live on each floor of the residence hall. Resident Assistants help
facilitate a strong residential community through regular meetings and fun, interactive, and educational
programming. The Department of Housing and Residence Life strives to provide you with a comfortable
and safe living and learning environment. Along with Residence Life Staff, we have a dedicated staff of
housekeepers and maintenance technicians to keep your residence hall clean and operating smoothly.
We believe that living on campus is a vital part of the student experience at Louisburg College; therefore,
we require that each student live on campus. Students residing with parents within driving distance are
allowed to commute. (Off-Campus Living Requirements listed in the Louisburg College Student Handbook)
Registering for a Housing Assignment:
During SOAR you will complete a housing contract
and a lifestyle indicator to assist in selecting a
roomate. If you meet someone during SOAR with
whom you wish to live, you may indicate this on
the lifestyle indicator as well. Keep in mind that
both you and your preferred roommate will have to
list one another on the lifestyle indicator! Please
know that while we make every effort to honor your
request we cannot guarantee any room/roommate
request.
Internet:
All residence hall rooms are wired for high-speed
internet service. Additionally, students are able to
access the Louisburg College Wireless Network
in any building (including all residence halls). If
students are using the Ethernet port for internet
usage, they must supply their own Ethernet cord to
connect to the internet.
Password: lcgreatfutures
Laundry/Vending:
Washers and dryers are located in Wright, Kenan,
Merritt, and Hillman Halls. It is requested that
residents use the laundry facilities in their hall
where available. If facilities are not available in their
hall, male residents are asked to use the facility in
Wright Hall and female residents are asked to use
the facility in Merritt Hall. Any problems should be
reported to the Department of Student Life.
For the convenience of all students, VISA, Discover,
Mastercard, and Debit Cards are accepted at all
laundry machines. Since many students tend to do
their laundry during similar time periods, it results
in busy laundry rooms. Additionally, Laundry View
is available for all students. Laundry View is an
internet application that allows students to monitor
the status of washer and dryers through a web
browser. Laundry view can be accessed at:
www.laundryview.com/louisburgcoll or from the
colleges’s website.
26

Room Changes:
Students are able to make room changes after
the first two weeks of classes. Should a student
desire to change rooms after that time, they
should first contact their Community Director.
The Community Director will then work with the
residents of the room to mediate any potential
conflicts or issues that might exist. If this process
does not assist students in being able to continue
to live with each other, the Community Director
will recommend a room change and the student
would then be able to make that change.
Dining Services:
Chartwells, Inc. operates the Duke Dining Center
and the Hurricane Zone for Louisburg College.
All resident students are required to purchase
the meal plan which includes 19 meals per week
(breakfast, lunch, and dinner M-F; brunch and
dinner S-S). Commuting students may purchase
meals a la carte from the Duke Dining Center or
the Hurricane Zone. Commuters may also utilize
their Hurricane card by purchasing a Commuter
Meal Plan of either 40 or 80 meals in the
Business Office.
The Hurricane Zone offers students a wide
variety of fast food items as well as convenience
store items such as soft drinks, snacks, and
other items. Students may also exchange their
dining hall meal for equivalency meals at the
Hurricane Zone. Each day the Zone will offer
several equivalency exchange options from which
to choose. Additionally, each resident student
receives $50 per semester in Hurricane points on
their card to use at the Zone.
Campus Organizations:
Student organizations provide leadership
development and social growth that complement
academic life. Most organizations are open to
any member of the student body, while some
have GPA or other requirements for membership.
Student organizations are governed by a
constitution and supervised by a faculty or staff
advisor. Students who have interests beyond our
current campus organizations should contact the
Director of Student Engagement about creating a
new student organization.

Campus Safety & Police:
The Campus Police department is located on
the first floor of Davis Hall. Officers are on duty
24-hours a day, seven days a week. Our Campus
Police Officers are here to assist students in any
way possible, most notably by helping to provide a
safe living and learning environment.
A safe and secure campus is a high priority at
Louisburg College. Campus awareness and
cooperation, along with the guidance and support
of a well-trained staff, contribute to a positive
learning environment. At SOAR events and new
student orientation in January, students are
informed of the services provided by Louisburg
College Campus Safety and Police. Students are
provided with information via handouts and the
Louisburg College Student Handbook.
Periodically throughout the year, Campus Safety
and Police along with the Student Life Office
will offer safety and crime prevention programs.
These programs may cover topics such as self
defense, drug and alcohol abuse, residence hall
security, etc. Inherent in all of these programs
is the need for students to understand their
responsibility for their own security and that of
others. Students are strongly encouraged to
participate in these programs.
The Campus Safety and Police Office prepares
the Campus Crime Report in compliance with
the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security
Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act. This
report includes all crimes reported to the Campus
Safety and Police Office, as well as crimes
reported to designated college officials (including
but not limited to Deans, coaches, advisors, and
Residence Community Coordinators) and local
law enforcement agencies.
Each year students, faculty, and staff receive
e-mail notification of the availability of the current
report. The report can be found as part of the
current Louisburg College Student Handbook
on the College’s website at www.lousiburg.edu.
Copies of the report may also be obtained at the
Campus Safety and Police Office.

Campus Police can assist you by getting you into

manner. Community members may also opt-in
to receive up-to-date school information such as
news, sports, special event notices, and more.
How can I sign up for LC Alerts? Shortly after
arriving on campus, students will receive an
e-mail (sent to their Louisburg College address)
instructing them on how to register. Registration
is quick, easy, and encouraged! Students can
select to have alerts sent to any combination of
e-mails, phone, and text numbers.
Health Insurance & Health Services:

insurance plan that is a supplemental plan to the
student’s family health policy(ies). The cost of this
insurance plan is included in the student’s fees.

Franklin County Health Department. The clinic
