First-Year Experience

Drury’s First-Year Experience program consists of many elements that are designed to help new students transition into college. This program includes the Alpha Seminar, a year-long course which helps students develop the abilities needed for success in college and in life, the activities fair on the first day of classes each year, and Freshman Orientation on the four days that directly precede the first day of class.
