Your freshman year experience at Valdosta State University is critical in laying the groundwork for a successful academic and professional career. Employers view a well rounded successful academic career as evidence that students can be equally successful and productive in their chosen fields. Success begins by mastering the three principal tasks of the first year student:

• Academic Skills Development

• Adjusting to College Life

• Developing Academic & Career Goals

VSU’s Freshman Year Experience (FYE) is an outstanding student development program that assists first-year students in accomplishish these tasks.  The program is designed primarily for students who have not yet decided on an academic major. 

While being in FYE, I have met so many great new friends. This program really helps you create a personal bond with everybody in it. You have almost every class together and you definitely will see each other every day.

The picture above is our FYE class!! They are the best people ever! I love them!!
