Palm Beach Atlantic University

First Year Experience (F.Y.E.)

Moving from high school to college can be overwhelming and intimidating. That’s why Palm Beach Atlantic University created the First Year Experience (FYE) programs, implemented through our FYE Office. These innovative programs are designed to connect you with PBA and the people and services you need to be successful during your first year.You’ll make friends and lifelong memories through:

• SOAR — our one-day, summertime, pre-registration program
• Welcome Week — our extended orientation program, offered just before classes begin.
• Welcome Weekend — orientation for freshmen and transfer students who arrive at PBA in the second semester
• FYE 1001 (First-Year Seminar) — a required seminar course that is an extension of orientation
• First-Year Advising — you’ll connect with an adviser who will help you create a plan for your education
• Transfer Advising — from transcript evaluation to registration assistance for transfer students
• Bridges — help with academic challenges and programs for spiritual and social growth
