During this weekend prospective accepted students and their parents or guardians are exposed to faculty, staff, students, campus leaders, UGA offices and student organizations.

Founded at the University of Georgia in the Spring of 2008, students will interact with various UGA faculty, staff, students and campus leaders throughout the program.
