University of Georgia Belonging

Helping you find your UGA community

WE ARE FOR THE STUDENTS

We want all UGA students to feel seen, understood, and accepted. We believe we each play a role in this endeavor- from making a Residence Hall feel like a home, to feeling cared for at the University Health Center, or being welcomed into a student club.

When we each do our small part of helping everyone feel like they belong, it makes a big difference in our UGA community.

FIND YOUR COMMUNITY

Our goal is to help to make this large campus feel smaller. Whatever you’re interested in or friendships you’re searching for, we are committed to help you find your people at UGA.

View our 800+ student orgs or book a one-on-one session with a peer to help find areas of campus involvement that align with your interests.

NOT SURE HOW TO GET STARTED?

Connect with a student peer-to-peer mentor who can help match your interests or identities with programs and student organizations.
