The College of New Jersey | First Seminar Program

Fall 2021 FYS Information

You will have the opportunity to select your top six FYS choices when you fill out the First Semester Worksheet, and although not guaranteed, TCNJ makes every effort to give you one of these six when preregistering you for your fall classes. Please choose your six sections carefully to make sure these sections are of interest to you.
If you are placed into one of your 6 choices, you will not be allowed to change your FYS course. However, in the very rare case that you select FYS courses that have time conflicts with required courses for your major and are therefore registered for one you do not select, you will have the opportunity to request a change to your FYS if there is another open section that you would prefer.
If you are in the Honors program, you will choose 3 FYS courses (these courses can be found on the Honors page and all have the form FYS 16x-Hy). If you are a Bonner Scholar or are in the W.I.L.L program, you do not need to select an FYS course. You will automatically be enrolled in the appropriate courses (see the Bonner/W.I.L.L. page for the course descriptions).
