Early Arrival
Initiatives
Congratulations and welcome to the University of Florida! As you prepare to transition into what will be your home for the next several years, we invite you to find community through our Center transition programs. Each program is specifically designed to help incoming Gators find and build community with peers, faculty, and staff with shared interests.
In collaboration with peer leaders and campus partners, our goal is not only to help you find a sense of belonging but also to equip you with the connections and resources that will allow you to cultural wealth and thrive here at the University of Florida.









Horizons focuses on the successful transition of incoming first-year and transfer LGBTQ+ students.



PAACT focuses on the successful transition of incoming first-year and transfer students in the Black community.
