Upper-level courses will engage you. Many students report that course work at the junior level is both intellectually exciting and demanding. Your living arrangements may also have changed. The transition from commuting from home to living in a residence hall or apartment off campus calls for changes in behavior. Adjusting to roommates, different meal schedules, and a new social life takes time and energy.
Life is full of transitions.
For you, coming to a new campus opens a new and challenging adventure. Orientation programs are offered to assist new students in adjusting to University Park campus. We encourage you to attend as many sessions as you can, ask questions, and seek out help. When you have questions, contact Assistance and Information at the HUB Desk. You'll find students who can help you find answers to this hallmark experience in your life.
