The First-Year Experience

Your first year of college is unlike anything you've experienced before. To help you make the most of it, Albion created the First-Year Experience.

This dynamic program includes Student Orientation, Advising, and Registration (SOAR), Learning Strategies Workshops, a convocation series, and academic and career planning. At its center is the First-Year Seminar—a targeted course that covers cutting-edge topics and intersects with research or hands-on learning experiences.
