LSAMP STEP Retreats - Programming will primarily be delivered through a series of retreats, offered once per term.  Retreats will include guest speakers, workshops, community building activities, and other programs determined through a survey of participant needs. Retreat dates are the following:

  • Fall - Saturday, October 22nd, 2016
  • Winter - Saturday, February 4th, 2017
  • Spring BBQ - Tuesday, May 9th, 2017 | 5pm

Academic Counseling - Participants will meet once per term with either the Director of OR-AMP or the LSAMP Coordinator for academic counseling.  Topics that will be addressed will be academic success and resources, career exploration, interest in undergraduate research and internships, etc.
