New Student Orientation

Currently, our New Student Orientation will feature several dates of limited-capacity, in-person programming designed to offer opportunities to meet fellow incoming students, familiarize yourself with the campus, and learn what being a part of the FSC family is all about! 

New Student Orientation represents a unique opportunity for individuals to become better prepared to achieve their academic goals, connect with new friends, and foster a greater sense of belonging at FSC. As we spearhead the transition to an online setting, we are committed to preserving and building upon an existing strong foundation. Last summer, nearly all student participants (91%) found orientation to be a valuable experience. Students can expect to receive multiple dosages of evidence-informed training and interactive activities to become acclimated to the advantages of a FSC student experience.

By completing the program, you will:

• Strengthen your connection to the greater FSC community by touring the campus virtually
• Develop a deeper understanding of how things work at FSC (e.g., Distance Learning tools, Campus Email, Course Registration, etc.)
• Find and apply for scholarship awards; Learn more about some policies and procedures designed to keep you safe and well-informed
• Discover FSC services, departments, and resources, including Campus Mental Health Services, Student Activities, and The Tutoring Center, in addition to much more

Thank you for allowing us to assist you in what we believe will be a promising future! Please continue to monitor the FSC website for updates regarding orientation as new information becomes available regularly.
