About First-Year Programs

First-Year Programs strives to promote resources and curriculum that make incoming students’ transition to the University of Oregon seamless, substantial, and rewarding. Our unit offers a variety of First-Year Experiences (FYEs) to meet the needs of each first-year student, all designed to engage students in their academics, provide them with support from peer-mentors and faculty, and assist them in exploring university resources. There are four different FYEs that students can be a part of, explore each of them below!
