Start Your College Journey with Success!
Starting college is an exciting step, and having the right foundation can make all the difference. Our events are designed to help new students transition into college life by building confidence, connection, and a sense of belonging. Welcome Day introduces students to campus resources, peers, and opportunities that support their success. Family Day invites families and loved ones to engage with the college experience and explore ways to stay connected as their student enters this new chapter. Together, these events help students begin their college journey on the right path.
Bonus event: Join us after Welcome Day for the first Gator Volleyball game of the season at 7pm in The Swamp (that's our gymnasium in the PE building)!
