Parent and Family Information - UGA New Student Orientation

The start of a student’s journey at UGA is not only a transition for the students, but also for those family members that have and will continue to support them during their college career. New Student Orientation aims to help our parents, families, and supporters to be a great resource for our new students by providing them with UGA updates, information on campus resources, and advice from campus experts and other Bulldog parents and families.

All parents and families are encouraged to attend your student’s Orientation session, whether they are a First-Year or Transfer student. We have created this page to help all parents and guests understand what resources and information will be available for you at your student’s Orientation session. We encourage you to take some time to explore this site and learn more about the campus and Athens community.

We hope to provide you and your student with an experience to help you, as a family, transition into the UGA community.

Welcome to the Bulldog Nation, and as always, Go Dawgs!
