On Wednesday October 7, YFY hosted a virtual Freshman Forum event to provide first-year students with helpful mid-semester information and preparation for Spring 2021 course registration. The two-part program featured a Q&A panel with Student Success representatives. Following the panel, the Academic Advising Center for each College or School hosted individualized breakout sessions focused on in-depth information about spring advising and course registration.
