First Year Success

Given student trends, FYE @ Salem State will be pausing use of Twitter. Please follow us on our Instagram @fysuccess or Facebook Class Group (the official one, not a spam account) to stay up to date on deadlines, events, & tips to make your first year a positive one!

SPRING BREAK IS NEARLY HERE! Residence halls close Friday @ 7pm; there are no classes Monday-Friday. Offices are limited in in-person staffing next week. For example, the Navigation Center is fully remote. Double check before coming to campus assuming offices are open in-person.

Join FYM Emma for a presentation on how to improve your memory! On 3/7 at 3:00pm. #fysuccess Link buff.ly/417eelF

HOLDS! Fall advising and registration begins after break. Check your student account/email to see what holds you have & what you need to do to resolve them. Don't get blocked from getting the classes you need/want because you didn't resolve a hold (financial, competency, etc.)!

Tip of the Day! Feeling Stressed? Go for a walk! Sometimes it is helpful to step away from your work and take a break. There are many great places for you to go to take a quick walk and clear your mind. There is even a path on Central Campus! #fysuccess #fymentortips
