We are excited for your arrival as you become a member of the Lafayette Leopard family.
The English for Academic Purpose (EAP) Center at Lafayette College aims to equip English learners with the reading, writing, and oral communication skills and the knowledge of US culture necessary to succeed in an English-speaking college setting.
If your native language is not English, we strongly recommend you attend the English Language Learning workshops and register for the ENG 100 Academic Writing class [W] provided by the EAP Center during your first academic year. The EAP Center is located on the 3rd floor of Scott Hall. To learn more about the support that is provided by the EAP Center, please visit the website at https://advising.lafayette.edu/eap/ or contact Tingting Kang at kangt@lafayete.edu.
Orientation will provide new students with the opportunity to meet faculty, staff, current student leaders and other new students at Lafayette. It familiarizes them with our shared community and academic values and expectations, encourages them to understand the importance of operating in Lafayette’s pluralistic and inclusive community, introduces them to resources that can assist them in making a successful transition to college life and instills in them an appreciation for the value of an academically rigorous and diverse community.
