At Over 16,000 Wolves Strong, UWG Welcomes Students Back to Campus

Aug. 20, 2026

 

The University of West Georgia kicked off its new academic year with Weeks of Welcome events to bring new and returning Wolves together for the Fall semester. Campus has sprung to life with events ranging from Move-In Day, Convocation, Welcome Back Blast and the First Day of Class.  

Part of this year’s festivities included the introduction of Pack Cards, which are collectible trading cards designed to encourage students to experience campus life, engage with university traditions and connect with the Pack. 

You can see more from the Weeks of Welcome below or by visiting UWG’s Facebook. Interested in visiting campus? Check out our events calendar for upcoming community events.
