Registration Will Take Place in Two Phases

Because seating is limited, families should carefully review the registration process.

Phase I: Grade-Level Seat Allocation

During Phase I, a specific number of seats will be reserved for each grade level. Students must complete the official Google Form to be considered for a seat.

Phase I closes September 15, 2026.

If all seats assigned to a grade level are filled, additional students from that grade level will be placed in the overflow group.

Phase II: Remaining Seats

After September 15, any seats that remain available will be offered to students in the overflow group in the order their Google Form submissions were received, based on date and time.

Submitting the Google Form DOES NOT guarantee or confirm a seat.

How Is My Seat Confirmed?

The registration process has three steps:

1. Complete the Google Form.
The date and time of your submission will establish your registration order.

2. Receive the payment link.
If a seat is available for the student, the parent/guardian will receive a link to submit the $250 payment.

3. Submit payment within 72 hours.
Families will have 72 hours from the time the payment link is sent to complete payment. Once payment is received, the student's seat will be officially confirmed.

If payment is not received within the 72-hour window, the seat may be offered to the next student on the overflow list.

Important:

Google Form Submission ≠ Confirmed Seat
Payment Received = Confirmed Seat

More Than a College Tour

This experience is about more than visiting campuses. We want our students to see themselves walking across college campuses, pursuing degrees, building relationships, and continuing the proud legacy of HBCU excellence.

From Alabama State to Tuskegee to Florida A&M, our students will have an opportunity to experience the history, culture, academic opportunities, and traditions that make HBCUs special.

And what better way to conclude the experience than by supporting our Southern University Jaguars!

Seats are limited. Complete the Google Form early and prepare to experience HBCU excellence with the Southern University Laboratory School Family!
