Admitted Students - First Year Experience

Are you looking for some assistance with the transition from high school to college?
Have you considered being a member of a living and learning community?

Lasting FriendshipsWe want to help make your transition from the high school to university life successful.  The program is built around relatively small groups of students who may take classes together or live in the same residence hall.  Students in any of the FYE communities attend presentations related to academic support resources and skills offered to you via your academic resource mentor.

The program is open and free to all entering first year students with a Residence Hall Housing Contract.  However, there are limited spots available and not everyone who applies is accepted.  So, if you want to join you need to act fast as spots get filled very quickly.
