Transfer/Adult SOAR Program - Spring 2010

Session 1 Wednesday, January 13
Session 2 Thursday, January 14

SOAR is a required program for all transfer and adult students coming to UNCG.

Reservations for the spring SOAR 2010 program will will open mid November 2009

Transfer and Adult Student SOAR is offered to acclimate students coming from other institutions and first-time adult students to the unique culture and operations of UNCG. We offer a concurrent program for parents and families of students as well.

Using the recommendations of currently enrolled transfer and adult students, this program is designed specifically to meet your needs.

As you know, universities are complex organizations, and UNCG has its own policies, procedures, resources and traditions that are vital for every student to know in order to succeed. SOAR will provide an introduction to these topics and will instill all new students to UNCG with a greater understanding of our support resources and community expectations.

Preparation matters. SOAR will enhance your readiness to get a great start at UNCG and will introduce you to some of your peers in this new venture. We look forward to helping you prepare for success.

All new transfer and adult students are responsible for the information covered at SOAR. You will be charged a mandatory new student fee for SOAR; we encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity to prepare for your UNCG experience.

Advising and Registration by Appointment?

Transfer and adult students can particpated in Advising and Registration by Appointment (ARA).   Please remember that although ARA is available before your SOAR session, you will still be required to attend SOAR.
