FALL REGISTRATION AND ORIENTATION JULY 21 AT ABAC

TIFTON- There are only two new student registration and orientation sessions remaining before the beginning of the fall term at Abraham Baldwin College. Space is still available for both sessions. The first session is on July 21, and the second is on Aug. 17.

There is an orientation fee of $30 to attend either session. All students must be at the J. Lamar Branch Student Center at 8 a.m.

Before attending any orientation sessions, students must turn in a completed ABAC application form, along with a $20 application fee. Once accepted to ABAC, students can register to attend one of the orientation and registration sessions offered for fall term. Students should sign up ahead of time for these sessions by calling the Office of Enrollment Services at (229) 391-5001.

Activities during orientation will 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.

Students attending the July 21 registration and orientation session must pay all fees by Aug. 9 at 4:30 p.m.

Students who need assistance paying for their college education can still apply for financial aid, but they must be prepared to pay initially and be reimbursed for the aid that they qualify for at a later date. For additional information, contact the Financial Aid Office at (229) 391-4910.

For additional information about the fall term or to request an application, contact Enrollment Services or visit the ABAC web site at www.abac.edu. Fall term classes begin Aug. 21.
