The first thing I always recommend students in the admissions process, start by visiting our website, visit campus, really see if this is a school that you'd want to apply to.
Once you're ready for the application process, we have Admissions Counselors for every geographic region in Georgia, and for all student types. So we have freshmen, we have transfers, all different Admissions Counselors to be able to help you personally through every step of the journey.
Once you're accepted to Georgia Southern, the first thing you should do is definitely just celebrate. Take a minute to take it all in. This is an awesome experience and time in your life.
And then you'll want to check out your admissions, "My Status Check" page. This page gives you a lot of really great information about orientation, scholarship information, financial aid, and applying for housing.
To register for SOAR orientation, there's a tab that says orientation at the top. You can click on that and get registered.
The application process for me, I feel like they really helped me and walk me through the application process. As a transfer student as a non-traditional student, I felt a little bit out of place, but they just made me feel so welcome and the people -- the current student and the new students with me -- they've become some of my mentors throughout my career and just friends that I can lean on while I'm in class.
