First Year Experience at UJ

First Year Experience at UJ The ultimate varsity guide. Success starts here... What is FYE? Despite significant successes, these initiatives have generally remained isolated.

The First Year Experience (FYE) is conceptualized as a holistic programme which encompasses all aspects of first year student experience. It attempts to establish an ethos through which all first year students will experience the transaction into university life. FYE comprises both curricular and extra-curricular initiatives

Why an Implementation of a First Year Experience Programme at UJ? The Un

iversity of Johannesburg has long been involved in initiatives to support student success, especially at first year level. The FYE attempts to draw the best from current practice and to develop a coherent transitional experience for incoming students. School to university transition has been identified as a major problem area: Students often find the transaction from school to university a difficult feat to accomplish. The transition has been described as “somewhere between a challenging hurdle and an intimidating leap into the unknown”. FYE seeks to manage the school-university transition: if students perform well in first year, they will be much more likely to stay and succeed. Quite simple FYE would like students to enjoy their time at UJ. What we offer:

FYE serves as a one-stop shop to answering all the questions first year students may have, and for finding all the information and support they will need to become a successful, healthy and happy UJ Students. We are “THE ULTIMATE VARSITY GUIDE”
