First Year Experience Program

As you embark on your university career and one of the most significant transitions of your life, we want to help you succeed in the next phase of your educational journey.

We welcome you to Angelo State University and hope your time here will be an adventure filled with new challenges, exciting opportunities and wise decisions. Because it sets the stage for the rest of your time on campus, your first year at ASU is the most critical of your college career.

The First Year Experience (FYE) Program at Angelo State University was created in the fall of 2008 to help first-year students successfully adapt to university life. We understand that all students new to ASU will have some sort of first-year experience and we are excited about helping make yours a successful endeavor. We hope ASU becomes your home away from home and that you make connections with all aspects of university life during your stay. Think of FYE as your personal Global Positioning System (GPS) to help you navigate through your college career, avoid roadblocks, select correct exits and reach your final destination—ASU graduation.
