Transfer Personalized Campus Visit

The tour that is offered by Undergraduate Admissions is a generalized tour to familiarize prospective students with what UNG has to offer. The Transfer Personalized Campus Visit is led by the transfer support staff and transfer coaches to customize the visit surrounding the student’s interest. It would allow for short visits upon request with specific departments to drop in or schedule an appointment. The visit is also limited to one student and their family or guests as opposed to the admissions tour that can accommodate several families.

The Transfer Personalized Campus Visit is scheduled for two hours.

We offer a Transfer Personalized Campus Visit for the Dahlonega and Gainesville campuses. Therefore, students can only request their home campus for a personalized campus visit at this time. If there is a need for the student to tour another campus, the Office of Admissions offers campus tours.

The specific residence hall room will not be available to view on the Transfer Personalized Campus Visit. There may be a possibility to see a room within their assigned residence hall (pending availability) and the laundry room/common spaces.
