An exciting transition to life at Longwood

Three students hugging during New Lancer Days - Three students hug closely together and smile on a campus walkway. One student holds a water bottle while the others wrap their arms around her. A lawn and benches appear in the background. Friends share a joyful moment during a campus event.

During your first four days at Longwood, you'll have the chance to meet fellow freshmen as well as some other friendly Lancers who know the ropes. We'll answer your questions, prepare you for challenges, and tell you about all of the helpful resources available to you at Longwood.

Since you'll need to know these things, New Lancer Days is required.
