Chico State First Year Experience

About Chico State First Year Experience

Starting college can feel exciting — and a little overwhelming. Chico State’s First-Year Experience (FYE) helps first-time and transfer students build connections, pick up college success skills, and feel supported from day one. FYE-supported courses fulfill lower-division GE requirements through collaboration, peer support, and real-world projects. FYE is also home to the Transfer-Year Experience: peer and faculty support, the Transfer Student Organization, and the Transfer Student Lounge in Meriam Library 208.
