Maxine McDonald, Acting Director
Reentry/Transfer Students
We specialize in the changing needs
of adult learners and transfer
students. Older students tend to have
strong motivation, coupled with an
eagerness to learn. At the same time,
students returning to school —
especially 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 highly recommended
for all new undergraduate students
— first-time freshmen and transfer
students — to help them make a
smooth transition to the university.
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
students with campus services and
highlights opportunities to get
involved; it also provides assistance
with on-line class registration and
affords attendees an earlier registra-tion
date.
Parents are invited to attend special
orientation sessions that will provide
answers to questions about academic,
financial, and co-curricular opportuni-ties.
Specific topics for parents include
parent transition/letting go, academic
requirements, University 1; student
rights and responsibilities; housing,
health, and public safety; parent associa-tion;
financing 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.
