26 sessions. 18,000+ students & families. 🐊

As our final summer Preview session wrapped up yesterday, we want to give a huge thank you to our 2026 Preview Staff, Student Coordinators, Interns, and Professional Staff.

What began with applications, interviews, and months of preparation grew into a team that welcomed thousands of new Gators with confidence, care, and pride.

Through early mornings, long days, countless conversations, and unwavering teamwork, you helped shape the first chapter of the Florida experience for every student and family who came through Preview. The impact you’ve made will continue long after this summer. 🐊✨

To our newest Gators, welcome home! The Gator Nation is stronger because you’re a part of it.

And while our final summer Preview session has concluded, we’re not done just yet… two more Preview sessions are still to come in August. 👀✨
