New Student Orientation prepares you for life as a Memphis Tiger and is an important part of transitioning into college. It’s a great way to get answers to all of your burning questions about college life, financial aid, getting involved, student services and more.

To be eligible for need-based financial aid, you must first submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) as early as possible using UofM’s school code on your application: 003509

Over the past decade, UofM housing has been booming. These aren’t your parent’s dorm rooms. You’ll discover a contemporary and cool vibe. And living on campus is a feeling that’s unmatched — full of energy, friendships, independence, spirit and fun.

TIP: While no one is required to live in our residence halls, studies show that students who make the choice for campus housing graduate in four years and have higher GPAs.

Great eats are scattered throughout campus, giving you the flexibility to fuel up anywhere you find yourself. The main hubs for dining (there are two) are both centrally located in the middle of campus and include an all-you-can-eat cafeteria with take-out options, coffee shops, markets, sit-down restaurants and popular fast food chains.

Lots of students sign up for meal plans. You can also add flex bucks to any plan for use in between meals at popular spots on campus, like Chick-fil-A, Panda Express, Grind City Coffee and much more.
