That s the theme for this year s New Student Orientation. According to Dr. Leslie Barnes-Young, director of Advising and Retention, the Orientation Committee has worked very hard to provide new students and their family members with a program that will give them a good sense of what being an FMU student is like. Students will get to know one another through a series of activities and sessions designed to introduce them to college life. This year, students and family members are given an opportunity to stay on campus in a residence hall room. Although the overnight is not required, the evening is full of activities like a cook-out, swimming, games, and even a movie.
Orientation is required for all new freshmen and transfer students.
August 7 Orientation brochures will be mailed out in the next couple of weeks. Maybe you re already a college student who plans to be home this summer. You might need an extra course to maintain your LIFE eligibility, maybe there s a course you ve been putting off, or perhaps you just want to get ahead. As soon as we review your file and accept you for admission, you will be allowed to register on line. Plus, FMU has three summer terms for your convenience.
