Be an orientation leader

Orientation Leaders (OLs) are paid ambassadors of Wayne State University who help incoming students navigate our in-person and virtual programming during First-Year and Transfer Student Orientation programs. New Orientation Leaders (NOLs) work primarily during the summer months; however, there are opportunities for employment throughout the academic year as needed. NOLs lead incoming students through the process of transitioning into the Wayne State community. They are available to support students through in-person and virtual programming, course registration, and student life. Orientation Leaders play a crucial role in making sure that all students feel welcome on campus. 

The application for the 2025 Orientation season will open in January 2025, with interviews taking place in February/March 2025. Please fill out our Orientation Leader Interest Form if you would like an email notification once the application is live.
