All About FSU Connections

StudentsWhat are the FSU Connections?

FSU Connections offer first-year students the opportunity to explore a major, a life skill, or a theme through the creation of linkages between and among courses from the program of general education.

Often, "introduction to the major" courses are included to assist students in making decisions about possible courses of study.

FSU Connections "Foster a Sense of Understanding" of the University, its programs, and one's own developing sense of self. FSU Connections experiences comprise a maximum of eight hours of an average 13-15 hour load during the first semester of college.

Who is eligible to join an FSU Connection?

FSU Connections are provided exclusively for first-semester, first-year students and to students who have twelve or fewer transfer hours.

How Can You Join an FSU Connection?

Registration is held at the University's Preview FSU Conferences (our annual student orientation program), held every summer.
