Designed to make the transition to college life a smooth one, the Ìýbrings students and faculty members together with the goal of helping students excel academically, socially, and culturally and navigate theÌýmanyÌýopportunities CU-Â鶹ӰԺ has to offer.

Throughout the semester, small groups of students meet with faculty members every two to three weeks to discuss issues such as succeeding at CU, preparing for finals, managing time and balancing school and life. The program also gives first-year students the opportunity to get to know faculty and students beyond their residence hall and major.

More than 2,000 first-year students are already participating. First-year students are encouraged to get their roommate or whole floor to join the program -- students who join with at least two other people will be entered in a drawing for great CU prizes.
