FOR INCOMING ORIENTATION STUDENTS All incoming First-Year and Transfer students will be advised at their in-person orientation session. Make sure to check out the New Student Orientation site for information about signing up for your orientation session and keep an eye on your inbox for new information. Advisors are not able to meet with incoming students or clear their registration holds before their in-person orientation session. Undecided Majors Unsure which major you want? It is OK to be Unspecified! Select an AB or BS Unspecified major in Athena. The Exploratory Center advises Unspecified/Undecided students. Request Appointment with an Explore Advisor For current students with more than 60 hours Meet our Undergraduate Coordinator Lynne Seymour FOR CURRENT STUDENTS with 60 or fewer hours All UGA students are required to be advised every fall and spring semester. You can’t register until you’ve had your advising appointment. Make an appointment shortly after drop/add to avoid a last-minute rush that might impact your ability to register on time. If you have questions about making an appointment, email your advisor.
