Lo-Fi is essentially a lower-sensory, more relaxed experience designed to reduce overstimulation. The Lo-Fi Orientation Experience runs concurrently throughout the two-day orientation session and is not a separate program. The concept is inspired by lo-fi music, known for its calming, retro sound and steady, downtempo rhythm. The Lo-Fi Orientation Experience creates a calm, inclusive environment through smaller groups, softer visuals and sounds, and a more focused pace. Students receive the same information and overall experience that meets different needs and expectations.
