FYE's Mission
In support of Å®ÉñÐßÐßÑо¿Ëù’s mission to pursue academic excellence and dedication to student success, the First-Year Experience Program facilitates the successful academic and co-curricular transition of new undergraduate students into the Å®ÉñÐßÐßÑо¿Ëù community.
We strive to create a welcoming, inclusive, and fun experience focused on acclimating you to our campus community both inside and outside the classroom. We support first-year students through orientation programs providing opportunities for engagement across campus and connecting students to resources to promote retention, academic and personal growth. This is especially relevant for first-generation college students, as they may be the first in their family to experience the adjustment to college life and academics.
