Taught by our First-Gen Faculty mentors, First-Gen Friendly Common Courses encourage Jump Starters to form a supportive learning community during their first semester.
The Common Courses include peer-led academic support outside of classroom hours to help students develop good study habits, work together on assignments, and form productive time management skills.
Jump Starters will enroll in their choice of two Common Courses. Offerings for the fall 2022 semester include:
- Astronomy
- Biology
- Economics
- English
- Human Development and Family Studies
- Math
- Psychology
First Gen Common Courses will fulfill parts of the general education requirements for all four-year degree programs.
