Intended Business Students
Attend Terry events
Start networking with upperclassmen, faculty and alumni. As an intended business major you should receive the “This Week at Terry” newsletter with a listing of upcoming events and programs. Contact Undergraduate Student Services if you are an intended business major and are not receiving “This Week at Terry.”
Check out the UGA Career Center
From résumé writing to career fairs to etiquette, the UGA Career Center is a valuable resource that you will rely on during your time at Terry and after graduation.
Join a student organization
Connect with other business students and gain leadership experience outside the classroom. A good time to get plugged in with a student group is at the Terry Major Orientation.
