For New Students

While the first-year experience truly begins at your introduction to the college, the mission of the First-Year Experience Program is to welcome and introduce you to the rich academic, cultural, co-curricular, social and residential life of the college. We offer a seamless series of events designed to help all students who are new to campus, including transfers and Ada Comstock Scholars, engage as productive and successful members of the Smith community.
