International Orientation

Undergraduate Students: International SOAR

All undergraduate students are required to participate in Southern’s Orientation, Advisement, and Registration (SOAR) prior to beginning their first term of enrollment at Georgia Southern. A special International SOAR session offers important information about maintaining your visa status, adjusting to U.S. classroom culture, and how to navigate life at Georgia Southern.

At SOAR you’ll have a chance to meet other incoming students, discover campus resources and student life opportunities, and get settled into your new life in the United States. Cost is $35 for students and unlimited guests at $15 each.
