Lion Launch
Prepare for success
The UAFS Lion Launch program is a four-hour orientation designed to give transfer and non-traditional students hands-on experience with the UAFS software, security, and technology you’ll use as a Lion. Learn how to access your grades, class schedule, and financial statements on your phone, connect to university WiFi, set meetings with your academic advisors, check-out materials from the Boreham Library, and more.
You’ll discover the credentials and experience you’ll need to place you at the top of employers’ lists. Plus you’ll be able to tour campus, see your classrooms and facilities, tour the library, enjoy a meal with us, and mingle with other non-traditional and transfer students. The countdown to the start of the semester is underway. Register today for Lion Launch.

Credentials and Careers
UAFS’s hands-on approach to learning allows you to earn both a degree and a resume. During this brief session, you’ll learn how our Career Services professionals can help you secure your internship, develop your professional portfolio, and connect you with potential employers.
Connect with UAFS Tech
This hands-on session places you behind the keyboard to experience the software and technology you’ll use daily at UAFS. You’ll learn how to check your grades and homework in Blackboard, connect with your academic and financial aid advisors in Navigate, set up your mobile accounts, and more.
Small Group Tours
Our Lion Guides will take you on a personal campus tour during this interactive session. Check out your classrooms, explore Boreham Library, visit the Campus Center, or take on the climbing wall at the Recreation and Wellness Center. Roam your new campus home and enjoy being a distinct member of the UAFS Pride.
