Welcome to the FranU campus community! Wolf Pack Orientation is designed to provide you a conducive space to make valuable connections, become more acquainted with the campus and its services, and gather helpful tips towards a successful and formative experience at FranU.
Students not yet admitted to FranU may contact the Office of Admissions at (225) 526-1631.
ADMITTED STUDENTS MUST SCHEDULE AN ADVISING APPOINTMENT AND MEET WITH AN ADVISOR PRIOR TO ORIENTATION. Information on how to schedule advising appointments is sent to students within their "Next Steps" emails and through their applicant portal. October 3, 2022 will be the first day new students can schedule advising appointments. The appointments offered will begin on October 17, 2022. Please contact the Office of Advising, 225-526-1620, if you have any questions.
Wolf Pack Orientation is a required program for incoming students. Those students who have been readmitted to FranU, meaning they have taken classes previously at FranU, can choose to attend orientation if they wish to receive updated information. Students who are participating in online programs, dual enroll, or certificate tracks are not required to attend orientation.
One family member/guest is invited, but are not required to attend orientation. However, we strongly encourage their attendance, especially if this is their student’s first university experience. Since the information presented is new it really helps to have someone else to help remember all of the details.
Wolf Pack Orientation is being held in the Biological Learning and Research Building (Room 100) located at:
5222 Brittany Drive, Suite B
Baton Rouge, LA 70808
There will be parking and direction signs around the campus for your convenience. You may also reference the campus map, scroll to the bottom of this page to access, for building location and parking options.

The student orientation fee is non-refundable. Should you decide not to attend FranU then you are responsible for notifying the Office of Admissions at (225) 526-1631.
New students can receive their student ID and parking tag at orientation. Instructions on how to submit a student ID photo and parking tag form will come in your registration confirmation email.
