The Second Year Experience Program supports students by reflecting on their first-year experience and conducting a deeper self-exploration of their identity, values, and life goals. Students will develop a graduation life plan through engaging in workshops and networking with graduates and alumni from historically underrepresented backgrounds. The program helps students select a major, prepare for a career path, and develop their ideal future self.
