Students playing Twister at Weeks of Welcome

Welcome to the Office of Student Involvement First Year Program's website at IUPUI!

The first year of college is both exciting and challenging. Our goal in First Year Programs is to assist new students with meeting new friends, making connections on campus and in the community, developing leadership skills and valuing diversity.

There is a direct connection between what happens in and beyond the classroom; you will find that our academic and student life programs are complimentary and interrelated.

The Office of Student Involvement First Year Programs works with University College to provide many opportunities for first-year students to maximize their first year by helping them develop academically, socially, emotionally and intellectually.

By making the most of your first year at IUPUI, you are unlocking your potential for success through graduation and beyond.
