There are several things you should take care of before coming to Freshmen Orientation.

• Complete and submit the Application for Admission with the appropriate application fee. Prep registration will be blocked for students not yet admitted to the university.

• Submit a completed Proof of Immunization form [pdf].

• Request that ULM receive your official ACT scores (ULM ACT code 015980). All out of state residents must request that their High School send ULM a copy of their official transcript. Unaccredited Louisiana High School and Home Study students must submit an official transcript.

• If you plan to live on campus in the fall, complete and submit the Housing Application with the appropriate application fee. All housing application materials will be sent to students after admission to ULM.

• Complete the FAFSA to apply for financial aid. Regardless of income, every applicant can receive some type of financial assistance. FAFSA is also the form to complete for TOPS.
