TIFTON- The last available registration and orientation session for students enrolling at Abraham Baldwin College for the fall term will take place on Aug. 17. There is an orientation fee of $30. All students must be at the J. Lamar Branch Student Center at 8 a.m.

Before attending any orientation session, students must turn in a completed ABAC application form, along with a $20 application fee. Once accepted to ABAC, students can register to attend the orientation on Aug. 17. Students should sign up ahead of time by calling the Office of Enrollment Services at (229) 391-5001.

Activities during orientation include meeting student leaders, tours of the campus, a guide to registering for classes, a Focus on Your Major session, and the actual registration process.
