MyStart, the student transition program for first-year students, is now available

Â鶹´«Ã½’s is a series of faculty-specific modules and live workshops that provide new students with a head start on their university journey. The program is available now until the end of August to help students prepare for classes in September. 

This year’s program has new interactive program components, access to mentoring and other individualized support.

Faculty-specific programming is delivered online through Canvas through synchronous (real-time) and asynchronous (self-directed delivery) modules. Students can complete modules at their own pace and engage in live workshops throughout the summer.

MyStart participants will:
  • Connect with academic support staff.
  • Discover programs and services in place to support student success.
  • Engage with fellow first-year students and learn about the experiences of upper-year students.
  • Gain foundational academic skills including active study strategies, math, writing and more.
  • Identify how to cultivate a unique university experience.
  • Learn how to navigate online learning.
