Family & Supporters
Student Orientation and Success (SOS) recognizes and appreciates the vital role parents, families, and other supporters play in their student’s success at the University of North Georgia. Serving as a centralized resource, SOS strives to equip parents, families, and other supporters with the knowledge of university resources and services and provide experiences to strengthen their relationship with their student as a partner within their educational journey and experience.
Our 2025-26 Orientation Guidebook is packed with resources and program information to help guide your student through their first semester at UNG. Be sure to review all the valuable details inside to ensure they have a smooth and successful start.
Join the UNG Family Network!
The UNG Family Network is designed to provide the information you need when you need it. This resource will help current and future University of North Georgia families stay engaged and focused on what matters most: your student's success.
In-Person Family & Supporter Orientation
Family members and supporters of incoming students play an important role in their student's transition to UNG. To support you during this process, we offer an in-person Family and Supporter Orientation during our one- and two-day student sessions. These sessions are designed to address your specific needs and concerns, providing valuable information to help you support your student’s success at UNG.
Self-Paced Family & Supporter Orientation
Family members and guests of incoming students play an important role in their student's transition to UNG. We recognize the support you need as well, so we have designed a self-paced online Parent and Family Orientation to meet your specific needs and concerns.
