All of our new students are required to attend an Orientation session before enrolling in your courses. We have built a program that ensures you will start your new adventure on the right foot.

During your Orientation session, you will be advised and select courses for your first semester. We will introduce you to many departments and resources that will make your experience here at UGA unique, while offering you time to familiarize yourself with our campus. Once again, we want to welcome you to this institution. We know that you will soon feel right at home, and it all starts here with your Orientation experience. Go Dawgs!
