Are you a current NIU undergraduate student who enjoys working with new students and would like to build your leadership skills? Consider applying to be an Orientation Leader.

An Orientation Leader (OL) is an undergraduate student who helps incoming first-year and transfer students transition to NIU. An OL’s primary role is to build connections between new students and help form a sense of belonging on campus. Additionally, OLs serve as a resource and role model to new Huskies. Employment runs from February to August 2026.
