    Common Questions<\/h3>\n \n \n
    \n \n \n
    \n \n Will I move into my permanent residence in July?<\/span>\n\n \n \n \n \n<\/svg>\n <\/button>\n \n
    \n

    No. You will move into your permanent residence hall in August, prior to the start of the semester. However, you will have the option to store belongings that can fit into a small storage container (18\u2013gallon tote).<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

    \n \n Do I have to pay for meals?<\/span>\n\n \n \n \n \n<\/svg>\n <\/button>\n \n
    \n

    There are no meal or program activity costs for students during the Summer Enrichment Program (SEP). However, additional expenses such as night snacks, items purchased during shopping trips, etc. are the responsibility of each student.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

    \n \n What is my expected level of participation during the program?<\/span>\n\n \n \n \n \n<\/svg>\n <\/button>\n \n
    \n

    All SEP participants are expected to be actively involved and attend all program activities. The more you put in, the more you will get out of the program. This is the sole reason you are on campus at this time and we want to help you succeed.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/section>\n\n\n\n

    Establish a Community<\/div>\n \n \n<\/svg>\n <\/div>\n
    With the Summer Enrichment Program, I enjoyed the week-long activities, both on and off campus. SEP was helpful in establishing a close-knit multicultural community in which I made many friends of different backgrounds and met amazing mentors! With SEP, you will belong, make life-long friendships, and be supported by various individuals in your transition to college.<\/div>\n

    Build Connections<\/div>\n \n \n<\/svg>\n <\/div>\n
    I\u2019m extremely grateful to have the opportunity to attend the SEP program. It allowed me to experience what is expected of an incoming resident student by learning about the different campus locations, hearing the stories from our mentors about their experiences, and attending various programs to put us in the college mindset. Most importantly, it allowed us to build connections before starting our first semester, which I see as an immense confidence boost.<\/div>\n

    Make Friends<\/div>\n \n \n<\/svg>\n <\/div>\n
    SEP was a great program for minoritized students to learn about and become accustomed with the campus prior to Orientation. It was also wonderful to meet other minoritized individuals who are coming to LVC. Making friends and knowing that there is a community for you is one of the best feelings.<\/div>\n
