The Lurleen B. Wallace Community College Experience
Once a student is accepted to LBWCC, they will be invited to attend the LBW Community College Experience new student orientation. Attending the LBW Community College Experience is designed to give each student a "jump start" in obtaining information about the programs and services at LBWCC. During these sessions, students will also have the opportunity to meet other new students who will be starting classes during the same semester.
During the on-campus LBWCC Experience session, students will
-
acquire a better understanding of how college works
-
have questions answered from LBWCC faculty and staff
-
learn about their LBWCC degree plan and register for classes with their academic advisor
-
tour the college campus and see where classes will be located

We have high expectations for our students during this important first year. Realizing that many students have questions and concerns about beginning college, our plan is to share the vital information that will help them understand those expectations and enable them to set realistic goals. We feel confident that a student’s participation in this LBWCC Experience will help develop a sense of being a part of LBW Community College and will contribute to their success!
