New Student & Family Orientation Hosts Spring Orientation, January 5
New Student & Family Programs hosted a virtual Spring Orientation on January 5 to welcome nearly 100 new students starting this spring. This group includes over 70 Carolina Global Launch students. This program allows students to study abroad their first, fall semester and then begin at Carolina in the spring semester. These students studied at three different sites in the fall, including Scotland, Ireland, and Spain. This orientation also welcomes 21 student athletes, most of which graduated high school early to start at UNC this spring. Lastly, we also saw six part-time, degree seeking students for the day long program, acquainting them with what’s needed to transition smoothly to Carolina this spring.
