SOAR Leaders are current Illinois Tech students who are ready to help you transition into the college experience. Each student attending SOAR is assigned a SOAR leader who will contact you before you arrive on campus or attend one of our virtual sessions. During your program, SOAR leaders will help you navigate the new student orientation experience and serve as your main point of contact. Got a question? Ask your SOAR Leader!
Meet the Summer 2023 SOAR Leader Team!
Our team is a mix of undergraduate and graduate student leaders at Illinois Tech who are here to welcome and prepare you for the upcoming year. Photos of each SOAR Leader will be available soon.
