It also helps subsidize several of the excursions and Orientation activities that continue throughout fall semester. Agnes Scott has recently completed a new parking structure on S. McDonough Street.
Visitors are welcome to park there free of charge.
Families are encouraged to attend all Orientation activities with students. Orientation Council has planned several events intended to provide families with information about campus services and to meet other families as well as students, faculty, staff and administrators. Siblings ages 4-12 are welcome to come spend time with Orientation Council members during scheduled times. You'll meet with your FYI group and your faculty advisor on Monday, August 27, to select your classes. It is useful to go through the college catalogue prior to your meeting to have a better idea of what is available.
