blazer beginnings promo

UAB’s orientation program is required for all new students (freshmen, transfer, or non-traditional), so you should plan for it early. Blazer Beginnings gives you a chance to meet other new students, learn about support services, and gain insightful information on how to be a successful Blazer. The size of each session is limited in order to allow your advisor and other campus representatives to work closely with you.
