Being a First Year Student in the FYE (First-Year Experience) Program!

I had a great experience with the First-Year Experience program. Nicholas Goymerac was my First-Year Mentor. The events during Welcome Week in August 2021 were the most memorable. With the Amazing Race Around Chicago and the Undergraduate Day of Service I was able to learn how to ride the Chicago “L” train and how to venture into the city. The leadership academy event allowed me to make a new friend in my major, Architectural Engineering. The FYE kickoff event allowed me to interact with other first-year students and see what majors they are.
