And then we'll fight! fight! fight! for Delaware,

Fight for the Blue and Gold,

And when we hit that line,

Our team is there

with a daring spirit bold

And when we strike with might

Let foes beware

Our glorious name we'll uphold

 

And then we'll fight! fight! fight! for Delaware,

Fight for the Blue and Gold,

Delaware will shine to-night,

Delaware will shine.

When the sun goes down and

the moon comes up,

Delaware will shine.

 

And then we'll fight! fight! fight! for Delaware... [repeat]

 

The Delaware Fight Song, popular since the 1930s, was composed by alumnus George F. Kelly '15. Its first appearance is found in the Student Handbook from 1933. It is performed at home football games and at other athletic contests by the Delaware Marching Band and other instrumental ensembles.



Success in college means hard work and having the right resources to assist you along the way. We've compiled a few of the many people and places you'll want to get to know when you arrive.

Open a Bank Account

The WSFS Bank Account (http://www.udel.edu/banking)
To accommodate the busy lives of students, the University and WSFS Bank have partnered to provide unique banking services to meet your needs. The UD Really Free! Checking account allows students to use the UD#1 Card as a debit card at on- and off-campus locations that accept STAR®. With a banking office conveniently located in the Trabant University Center and twelve (12) on-campus ATMs, WSFS Bank can save you time and money. When you link your UD#1 Card to a checking account from WSFS Bank, your UD#1 Card can be used as a debit card at on- and off-campus locations that accept STAR®.

To sign up for a checking account from WSFS Bank, or to link any WSFS account to your UD#1 Card, visit the WSFS banking office on campus. WSFS representatives are available Monday through Friday 9:00am to 5:00pm.  You can also reach a representative by phone at (302) 831-4400 or toll free at 1-888-WSFSBANK.

FLEX: Cashless Purchasing Power On Campus

In addition to the WSFS banking account, students may choose to utilize a special feature of their ID Card--a FLEX account. Instead of carrying cash around campus, deposit money into your FLEX account and just use your ID Card! FLEX is accepted at over 200 locations on campus. For example, FLEX can be used to pay for dining, laundry, photocopies and anything purchased at the University Bookstore. It is also the only way to pay for printing in computer labs on campus. FLEX is not a checking account so it has no fees associated with it and is only accepted on campus. It is just another way to make college life a little bit easier.

For more information about the FLEX account visit the FLEX web site at www.udel.edu/ud1flex; visit the Service Desk at the Student Services Building on 30 Lovett Avenue; or call UD1-CARD (831-2273).

Complete your Health Forms

Personal and Family Medical History Form and Immunization Record were also enclosed with your DelaWorld brochure. All new students, living on or off campus, must complete these forms and return them to Student Health Services. Please direct questions regarding the completion of these forms to Student Health Services at (302) 831-2226 or online at www.udel.edu/shs.

View your Room Assignment

Your assignment will be available on the Housing Web site (http://www.udel.edu/has) during the first week of August. Your campus address and telephone number and the name, home address and home telephone number of any roommates will be included with your assignment. If you have not received your assignment by August 8, please call Housing Assignment Services at (302) 831-3676.

Around the middle of August, you should check out your fall schedule by logging into your UDSIS account. From there, you will see your entire fall schedule that you helped pick with your advisor.

Pre-Order your Books Online

Textbook reservation is a quick and effective way to secure your textbooks without a wait, and is available for you to shop online. Also, if you specify used books on your order, text reservation will include used copies when available. Books can be shipped to your home or are available for pick up on Move-In Day at the Perkins Student Center.  To order textbooks, please click on the button in the upper right-and corner of your schedule that says "Find your textbooks."  This will pre-load all of your required and recommended titles for only the classes for which you are registered and give you the ability to place your textbook reservation order.  You can also visit www.udel.edu/bookstore, call the bookstore at (302) 831-2637, or pick up a paper form during DelaWorld 101.

For students who choose to have their books shipped and have their orders placed prior to August 12, shipments will begin August 13. Order placed after August 12 will be shipped within 24 hours Monday-Friday via UPS Ground. For an additional fee, books can be shipped "next day" or "2nd day." Reservations for students who choose to pick up their textbooks at the University Bookstore will be available beginning August 21 in the Rodney Room at the Perkins Student Center. Also available for online ordering is software at academic pricing.
