First-Year Program

The First-Year Office coordinates academic and co-curricular programs and services for first-year students. This includes academic advising, academic and adjustment counseling, and the summer orientation programs, among others. The office maintains a close and collaborative relationship with the Academic Resource Center and faculty advisors of first-year students.

A note regarding COVID-19

We remain optimistic that we will be able to hold June-O as planned. However, the situation related to COVID-19 is changing rapidly. We will make decisions regarding any changes to June-O based on a number of factors including recommendations from our local health department and emerging CDC guidance with regard to travel restrictions. We will inform you of any changes as soon as possible. If students are unable to participate because the event is cancelled, all fees will be refunded to you. Please hold off on making travel plans if you have not yet done so.
