First Year Experience
First Year Experience
First Year Experience is an orientation program that places an emphasis on a student’s first year on campus. Our goal is to help students build meaningful relationships while acquainting them with campus life.
FYE consists of two parts, Welcome Week and Faulkner Foundations.
Welcome Weekend
Welcome weekend is an orientation experience for incoming freshmen and transfer students. It is designed to help students transition to Faulkner University through student-mentor led activities and events.
Faulkner Foundations
Faulkner Foundations is a course which meets once per week for 10 weeks. This course is designed to help students transition academically to college life at Faulkner University. Students will cover a variety of relevant topics including support services and academic skill development.
