WELCOME FROM THE ORIENTATION LEADERS WHAT IS FYTP?

WELCOME FROM THE ORIENTATION LEADERS 

As the 2015 Orientation Leader team, we would like to welcome you to the Syracuse University community! 

The Orientation Leaders, a group of upper-division students who serve as your ambassadors for Syracuse 

Welcome, are dedicated to helping you make a smooth transition to college life. 

We have been preparing for your arrival to campus for months and hope to make your first week on 

campus one of your most memorable. Syracuse Welcome is the time to make memories that you will fondly 

recall for years to come. You only get one Syracuse Welcome, so make the most of it. 

We’ve been in your place and know that coming to college can be stressful and nerve-racking, but don’t 

worry because we are here for you. We will be here for you during every step of your transition--to help you 

move in, answer any questions, and of course join you at Syracuse Welcome events! 

We hope you are as excited about Syracuse Welcome 2015 as we are and that you will make the most out 

of your time here at Syracuse University. 

Have a great summer, and we’ll see you in August!

WHAT IS A MOVE-IN PASS? 

A move-in pass is the printed pass you display on your vehicle’s dashboard during new student move-in. You 

register for your pass through the Move-In Pass System in July to select your specific move-in day and time. 

Move-in passes are available on a first-come, first-served basis. You will receive more information about

of the holding line to unload your car and 

move your belongings to your room. A legal 

driver must stay with the vehicle at all times. 

4. When your vehicle is empty, you will be 

directed to park in a designated location. 

You should continue to move-in while the 

driver parks.

SU I.D. 

WHAT IS YOUR SU I.D.?

• Gain entry to various campus facilities 

• Access your meal plan 

• Check out library materials 

FOOD ACCOUNT 

• Ride campus shuttle buses for free 

• Use campus athletic facilities 

• Use FOOD and PLUS funds 

FOOD is a declining balance account, which can be used in all Food Services locations (including dining 

centers, food courts, and vending machines) for food and non-alcoholic beverage purchases. 

PLUS ACCOUNT 

PLUS is a declining balance cash account, which provides access to goods and services through your 

SU I.D. Card. The PLUS account can be used in campus washers/dryers, to buy tickets at the Schine Box 

Office and Carrier Dome Box Office, at the Schine Copy Center, in campus convenience stores, and many 

more locations. 

The amount you add for both FOOD and PLUS is charged directly to your student bursar bill. All meal plans

OBTAINING YOUR SU I.D. 

Before the August 15 deadline, upload your photo 

via the SU Photo Upload website — housingprod.syr. 

edu/idc/security/syrlogin.cfm — so that your SU I.D. 

can be ready for pickup when you arrive on campus. 

If you uploaded your photo by the deadline, your SU 

I.D. will be waiting for you when you check in to your 

residence hall or South Campus apartment. SU I.D.

Parking Information During Syracuse Welcome 

Due to the large number of people and vehicles on campus for Syracuse Welcome, parking is limited to 

certain areas. 

After you move into your residence hall, you will be directed where to park by a faculty/staff volunteer, 

public safety officer, or parking staff member. Parking is not available directly at each residence hall to 

accommodate those unloading their vehicles. If you’re moving into Day, Flint, or Shaw halls, you will be 

directed to park at the Manley South or Skytop lots and take a shuttle back to your residence hall. 

If you leave campus and return after moving into your residence hall, it is recommended that you park 

in the Manley South or Skytop lots and take a shuttle back to your residence hall to avoid the traffic and 

congestion of new student move-in. 

PARKING PERMITS 

Residential first-year students may not bring vehicles to campus without prior approval by Parking and 

Transit Services. For eligible students, parking permits will be issued on Saturday and Sunday, August 29 

and 30, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the Parking and Transit Services office at 621 Skytop Road on South 

Campus. Parking permits can also be obtained weekdays during normal business hours. 

Shuttle Service During Syracuse Welcome 2015

SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY STATEMENT ON ACADEMIC ADVISING 

Academic advising is an essential component of a Syracuse University education. The University is 

committed to providing the individual advice and assistance that you need at every step throughout your 

degree program. A successful system of academic advising is highly dependent upon a shared commitment 

of students, faculty, and staff to the process and availability of timely, accurate information. 

STUDENTS 

Students are responsible for scheduling, preparing for, and keeping advising appointments; for seeking out 

contacts and information; and for knowing the basic requirements of their individual programs. Students 

bear the final responsibility for making their own decisions based on the best information and advice 

available and, ultimately, on their own judgment. 

ADVISORS 

Advisors are responsible for developing a thorough knowledge of the degree requirements within the 

student’s program of study and a working knowledge of academic options and resources throughout 

the University. Advisors are expected to involve students by encouraging them to ask questions, gather 

information, and explore options so that they may develop meaningful academic plans. Advisors will be 

available to students on a regular basis, monitor their advisee’s progress, assist in considering career 

options, and make appropriate referrals to other campus offices. 

THE UNIVERSITY 

The University, through its schools and colleges, pledges to support a campuswide network of faculty, staff, 

and student peer advisors by providing them with a clear and firm foundation of information regarding 

policies, procedures, resources, and programs. The University is committed to help faculty and staff develop 

effective advising skills, to evaluate its system of academic advising and support services, and to make 

improvements where necessary.

Meet the Orientation Leaders 

As ambassadors for Syracuse Welcome, Orientation Leaders (OLs) aim to help you embrace Syracuse 

University from the moment you set foot on campus. They assist with move-in and are a great resource 

for all Syracuse Welcome and campus related questions. They represent all different majors, schools, and 

backgrounds. OLs are one of the many resources at SU dedicated to helping you make a successful transition 

to campus.

Alma Mater 

Where the vale of Onondaga 

Meets the eastern sky 

Proudly stands our Alma Mater 

On her hilltop high. 

Flag we love, Orange, 

Float for aye, 

Old Syracuse o’er thee! 

Loyal be thy sons and daughters 

To thy memory. 

When the evening twilight deepens 

and the shadows fall, 

Linger long the golden sunbeams 

on the western wall. 






When the shades of life shall gather, 

dark the heart may be, 

Still the ray of youth and love shall 

linger long o’er thee.
