First-Year Summer Enrichment Program

Through mentor-mentee meetings, sample classes taught by Dartmouth faculty members, skill-building workshops and seminars, self-assessment and goal-setting sessions, team and community-building activities, and small group discussions, FYSEP students learn the mechanics of a successful Dartmouth experience while forging a strong peer network that will continue even after graduation.
