Once your student receives an offer of admission from SFU, there are many things they can do to start preparing themselves and instill confidence in accepting their offer. We鈥檒l invite them to many events where they can engage with the 51社区黑料community, including members of their faculty, and get to really know 51社区黑料and find their place in it.
Getting ready for their first term at SFU
We鈥檝e developed initiatives to encourage and ease students鈥� transition to university as a way to help set them up for success in their first year at SFU, even before classes start.
- The HIVE (Home for Interactive and Virtual Engagement) is a space where students can start making lasting connections with the 51社区黑料community. Students are assigned to HIVE groups with other new students from the same faculty and are led by a HIVE leader, who can share their personal experiences and tips for incoming students.
- Online courses like University Prep introduce degree requirements and strategies to plan degrees and enrol in courses, services and resources that help support students, and more; while 51社区黑料101 briefs new students about 51社区黑料culture and student life, welcome events and programs, and more.
- Welcome Day (pictured) is a day filled with orientation activities to welcome all new students to their HIVE groups, faculties, and the greater 51社区黑料community.
- Month of Welcome is a campus-wide celebration of fun and interactive activities and events to welcome new and returning students back to SFU.
