First Year Students

Once you have been accepted and paid your deposit, the Office of Admissions will invite you to an orientation. At your orientation you will choose classes with the aid of faculty and staff. A typical schedule for a freshman would be:

1. A W1 (writing intensive) class.
2. A first year seminar (part of your General Studies requirement)
3. A Q1 class (quantitative reasoning/math) class
4. A beginning class in your major, or another General Studies course.

An emphasis will be placed helping you understand Stockton's curriculum. If you would like to learn more about Stockton's curriculum, please check out our Curriculum pages.
