Each semester, the Division of Enrollment and Student Affairs welcomes students back to campus by assisting with Housing move-in, Weeks of Welcome events, and other opportunities to serve, and meet their needs. These programs depend on faculty, staff, and student volunteers to help provide a seamless transition to Augusta University. We encourage each University department to please sign up to volunteer, either individually or as a group or department. We appreciate all you do to support our students!
All hands on deck! For everything from check-in to parking to unloading items to providing helpful information to students and their families! Please click the below link to volunteer for first year student move-in. The dates and times are: Aug. 9 - 8:00AM – 5:00PM, Aug. 10 - 8:00AM–2:00PM
Returning students need help moving back ‘home’ also! Many different shifts are available! Click the link to see which one best fits your schedule! Looking forward to seeing you at UV, Beacon Station Apartments, or Elm Hall!
Volunteers are essential for Leap Week, helping new students feel confident and excited about starting their academic journey. Whether it's guiding students through our tracks, answering questions, or simply lending a friendly ear, volunteers play a crucial role in creating a welcoming and inclusive environment. Their involvement is key to helping students forge connections, discover resources, and thrive here at Augusta University.

Such a special event, as it marks the beginning of a student’s journey with Augusta University!
