Schedule

Our one-day virtual orientation schedule allows new students numerous opportunities to learn how to be a successful Yellow Jacket in and out of the classroom. Plan to begin orientation at 11:30 a.m. ET by attending a welcome session. Followed by a small group with a FASET Leader, last-minute meeting with your Academic Advisor,  and then ending the day with course registration.

Our one-day in-person orientation schedule allows new students numerous opportunities to learn how to be a successful Yellow Jacket in and out of the classroom. Plan to begin orientation at 7:15 a.m. ET with check-in, followed by a welcome session, sessions from campus partners, a small group with a FASET Leader, meeting with your Academic Advisor, and then ending the day with course registration. 

Students will receive information closer to their session time about their online or in-person sessions, how to access them, where to go, and more. 

Cost

The orientation fee for each student will cover the cost of all orientation materials and Week of Welcome activities. In-person FASET sessions are $150. Virtual FASET sessions are $115.

You are allowed to bring (2) Guests with you to FASET Orientation (Excluding Transfer and Exchange Sessions). The Fee for guests is $85 each.

Reservation Cancellations

If you are no longer attending FASET, cancellations must be received fifteen Business Days before your FASET session. (Business days are days that Georgia Tech is officially open for business.). Please email transitionprograms@studentlife.gatech.edu to officially cancel your reservation.

If you are not planning to enroll at Georgia Tech, please visit your admission portal to update your application. More information at the Undergraduate Admission website. Canceling your application with the Office of Admission will not automatically cancel your FASET registration. You must follow both processes.

If you do not properly cancel your registration to Georgia Tech, you will still need to pay for your FASET registration fee.
