We know the transition to a new school, while exciting, can also be confusing as you navigate new technology, new policies, and a new environment. As your Newnan advisors, we want to do everything we can to smooth this process and help you feel more prepared. To that end, we've developed specific pre-health and pre-law sessions as well as Academic Peer Leader drop-in sessions to answer common questions. These sessions are entirely optional, so if you want the additional support, please join us!

No registration is needed for these optional virtual webinars. Simply choose a session that suits your schedule and click the link below to join.
