What To Bring

When packing, keep in mind that parents/guests and students are in different locations during the program! Bring your personal items (extra clothes, toiletries) with you to check-in on Day One. The first thing that you will do with your stuff is place it in your residence hall room for the day (Sessions 1-10 only).

Here’s what you’ll need to bring to Lobo Orientation:

  • Your Net ID and password
  • UNM ID number (9-digit number that came in your Admissions Letter,sometimes referred to as Banner ID)
  • Print out of your My Course Placement results
  • Your e-Checkup Results
  • A government-issued photo ID (e.g., driver’s license, passport) for obtaining your Lobo ID Card
  • A backpack to carry your Lobo Orientation materials
  • Parking permit (mailed to you after reserving a space for orientation)
  • Comfortable clothes and walking shoes
  • A sweater, or light jacket (you will be in air-conditioned buildings)

Students attending Sessions 1-10 should also bring:

  • An alarm clock--Oversleeping on Day Two will result in having to attend another orientation session
  • Personal toiletries
  • A change of clothing for Day Two of Lobo Orientation
