Parent & Family “Pre-Flight” Modules
We are excited to share a new online platform that our Georgia Southern families and supporters can access to aid in their student’s transition to Georgia Southern. While your student has required Pre-Flight modules prior to attending SOAR, these are tailored to you as a supporter with your needs in mind. You have the ability to work through these modules at your own pace, pausing, and coming back to complete whenever works best for you.
Create Your Account/ Log Back InAttend SOAR Orientation
SOAR orientation for admits will be offered in two formats – in-person or online via Zoom. The student gets to decide what they would prefer!
Do I Need To Register?
If you plan to attend with your student, they will need to add you to their registration when they complete such. They do this through their MyGeorgiaSouthern portal under the New Student Resources tab.
Family Members and Supporters who attend SOAR will attend sessions both with and without their students. Sessions without your student will allow you to learn more about your role as a Georgia Southern Parent/Supporter.

How Many Guests Can Attend?
Students can register up to two guests to attend an in-person SOAR event, or one guest to attend a virtual event. NOTE: Registration for the guest is only necessary for virtual SOAR if they plan to join on a different device than their student and participate in the family break-out sessions.
How Much Is a Guest Registration?
In-Person Event
For students who register to attend an on-campus orientation session can bring up to two guests. The cost for each guest upon registration is $20.00 at the Armstrong and Statesboro campuses. Liberty campus guest rate is $10.00 per guest.
