Dean Christensen, Director
Reentry/Transfer Students
We specialize in the changing needs
of adult learners and transfer stu-dents.
Older students tend to have
strong motivation, coupled with an
eagerness to learn. At the same time,
students returning to school — es-pecially
transfer students — often
face complicated circumstances.
Once you have been admitted to the
university and have attended DOG
DAYS, we can help you address these
complex academic/life/career issues
and provide the appropriate referrals
if needed.
DOG DAYS:
New Student Orientation
DOG DAYS is required for all new
fi rst-time freshmen and highly recom-mended
for transfer students. The
excitement that comes with starting
university life can be tempered by
fears that come with starting a new
experience.
DOG DAYS: New Student Orienta-tion
offers students ways to overcome
fears, attain their educational goals,
and feel more at home at Fresno
State. DOG DAYS will help students
feel a connection to the campus. It
provides an opportunity to meet
with an academic dean, with faculty,
and with an academic advisor. It also
helps students select courses compat-ible
with university requirements,
their goals, interests, and abilities.
DOG DAYS familiarizes new stu-dents
with campus services and high-lights
opportunities to get involved; it
also provides assistance with on-line
class registration and affords attend-ees
an earlier registration date.
Parents are invited to attend special
orientation sessions that will provide
answers to questions about academic,
fi nancial, and co-curricular opportu-nities.
Specifi c topics for parents include
parent transition/letting go, academic
requirements, University 1; student rights
and responsibilities; housing, health, and
public safety; parent association; fi nancing
education; and classroom activities. Also
available are campus, library, and housing
tours; the resource information fair; and
an opportunity to meet academic deans.
DOG DAYS: New Student Orientation
introduces and connects students to the
essential elements that have proven to be
critical to student success and launches
students on a successful journey toward
their personal and academic goals.
