Our new Homepage is Live!: Our new Homepage launched at the end of September. Our new page was designed based on all of the feedback we received from our Partners, college administrators (Financial Aid) and Admissions, HS Counselors, and students (traditional and non-traditional). Thank you to all of you that participated in our redesign meetings, focus groups, and surveys!
Campus Tour updates
Now that school has begun, it is a great time to review the information on your Campus Tour page and begin updating through the Xap Control Center. Remember, this is the first impression that Georgians get of your school on the site. If you are not sure how to update your page, or if you need assistance, contact Janine Robinson Combre at janiner@gsfc.org.
