The mission of the Jaguar Nation Orientation and Welcome Program is to facilitate a positive transition into the Augusta University community.
By participating fully in the Jaguar Nation Orientation and Welcome Program, students and their families will have an opportunity to connect with campus resources, learn the culture and customs of Jaguar Nation, and leave confident in making the first steps towards a successful transition into the Augusta University community.
All new students are required to attend a Jaguar Nation Orientation and Welcome session!
