Freshman College participants register for six semester hours from a specific list of course offerings. Three semester hours will come from the general education curriculum (see list below) and the remaining three hours come from an elective degree credit course, UNIV 1102: Learning to Learn. Freshman College courses provide academic credit toward graduation. As a participant you are responsible for completing your registered courses. The classroom requirements are demanding and will require a dedicated time commitment on the part of Freshman College participants.

Important Academic Details

• A normal semester lasts approximately 15 weeks during the academic year. Freshman College courses cover the same amount of material in 4 weeks. One day of class during Freshman College is the equivalent of one week of class during a regular semester. The coursework is designed to be challenging and the pace is fast!
• You will attend class for 4 ½ hours a day, Monday through Friday. Morning classes are scheduled from 9:15 AM to 11:30 AM and afternoon classes from 1:00 PM to 3:15 PM.
• Registration for both Freshman College and fall semester courses occurs during participants’ New Student Orientation. All Freshman College participants attend the same orientation session.
• Freshman College courses offer students a smaller class setting. As such, seating is limited and your first choice could already be full when you register. Approach registration with an open mind and remember that all of our courses and instructors are exceptional. Each course will offer you a valuable learning experience and you will have ample opportunities to enroll in other classes during the regular academic year.
