FYE 1003: The MSU Experience

FYE 1003: The MSU Experience

All FYE 1003 classes are capped at 19 students in order to create a learning-community atmosphere in which students can connect with the university and with each other. In addition to the class instructor, each FYE 1003 class has a “Peer Leader.” Peer Leaders are upperclassmen who have been successful at MSU and who desire to help incoming freshmen make the academic and social connections necessary to help students become thriving members of the Bulldog family.


Other 1-hour FYE Courses

If a first-year student is unable to take FYE 1003, there are a number of other 1-hour FYE classes designed around a specific topic. These are small classes, restricted to new incoming students, typically with no more than 25 students. The classes are designed around topics that relate to a wide variety of interests and majors. If a first-semester freshman is unable to take the 3-hour FYE 1003, they are encouraged to enroll in one of the 1-hour classes that addresses a topic about which they would like to learn.
