Every week of summer brings us closer to move-in time! Now’s the perfect time to start thinking about what you'll need when you return to campus, check your class registration and maybe explore campus job opportunities. Our current student resources can help you get a head start on all of these.
We just wrapped up welcoming thousands of new Bobcats during Summer Orientation, and I’m already eager to see Athens spring back to life when our campus fills with students. Here's to an incredible academic year ahead. I’m here to support you however I can.
See you soon!

We're just over a month away from welcoming all our Bobcats back to campus. There are plenty of Welcome Week events already on the calendar like Movies on the Lawn, the Involvement Fair, Party at Ping and more. These events are open to all Bobcats, whether you live in a residence hall, commute to campus or live off-campus. We'll see you August 21!
