We are very excited for you to start your journey with us!
As an incoming student, you鈥檙e an incredibly important member of the Bobcat family,
and we are committed to helping you transition smoothly into the 吃瓜直播 State
College community. New Student Orientation is designed to give you information, resources
and connections to support you during your first year at 吃瓜直播.
For more details on what to expect, follow the steps below.
Please Note: This Orientation does not replace the eCore Orientation. If you are planning
on taking eCore courses, you will have to complete the prior to registering for those courses.
Step 1: Submit Class Registration Form
Now that you have been accepted, let's get you registered for classes! Filling out
the Class Registration form will allow our Advisement team to design a schedule specific
to your needs and based on your answers. If your schedule is not "perfect", there
will be numerous opportunities to add, drop, or change the schedule prior to the semester.
The sooner you submit the Class Registration form, the better chance you鈥檒l have of
getting the classes you need at the times you want.
Note: You will NOT BE able to register for classes until you verify your鈥痩awful presence. Submit required鈥痙ocuments in person to the Office of Admissions or through the鈥�鈥�of your admission portal as soon as possible. You may also use your FAFSA to verify
your lawful presence.
In addition to verifying your lawful presence before you attend NSO, you should also apply for housing if you plan to live on campus (Swainsboro only) and if you plan to use financial aid to pay for your education (EGSC鈥檚 code is 010997).
Step 2: Sign-Up for In-Person New Student Orientation
After you complete the Class Registration form (Step 1), you will need to sign up
for an on-campus New Student Orientation (NSO) session. You must attend an orientation at the same campus you plan to take classes.
If you plan to take ALL of your classes online, please sign-up for an 鈥淥nline Only鈥�
orientation.
After NSO, you鈥檒l have a better lay of the land and feel confident about starting
your time at 吃瓜直播 State.
