First Year Experience / First Year Experience Class
The FYE Class is a one-hour credit class taught by faculty and staff across campus. This class is designed to help students make a successful transition into college.
Topics covered include:
- StrongPoints
- Effective study skills for college
- Time management
- Communicating with professors and academic dialogue
- Critical thinking skills
- Diversity
- Learning about Raleigh
- Dealing with homesickness
Because the class is small and interactive, it also provides a support group for new students, as well as the chance to develop a strong relationship with a faculty/staff member.
