FASET

Overview

FASET is the new student orientation program where students receive academic advisement, register for first semester classes, and become familiarized with undergraduate curriculum, programs, and campus services. Traditionally, FASET takes place on campus over 2 days and accommodates parents and siblings. In-state students have the chance to have an earlier FASET, while out-of-state and international students have a FASET date closer to the start of the semester so they can stay on campus.

Course Registration

FASET is essentially Phase 1 registration for new students and transfer students.

FAQ

Q: What should I prepare for my FASET?

A: Ensure that all of your current test scores (AP, IB, SAT, ACT, A-levels, etc.) have been set to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions. Bring a copy of these scores with you as well. Ensure that all final and official high school and any college transcripts have been sent to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions. Bring an unofficial copy of these as well. Prepare a list of courses you would like to take, including plenty of backups. You may not get the classes that you want immediately, but there are still more chances for you to pick up those courses.

Q: What is a time ticket?

A: The specific time slot assigned to students during which they may register is referred to as a "time ticket." Students may view their assigned time ticket on the Web Student Access System. Students may access the "Add/Drop Classes" option only during their time ticket.

Q: Does it matter if I take an earlier FASET date?

A: Not entirely. Classes are reserved for each FASET session to ensure that all students have an equal opportunity. However, students who choose an earlier FASET date will have a higher probability of being able to select their desired timing/professor.

Q: Will I be able to register for courses without FASET?

A: Yes. You will be able to register for classes, but only in Phase 2 (after all the FASET sessions are over). It is recommended to go for FASET, however, picking from Phase 2 will be like going after leftovers.

Q: When will I be able to register for classes during FASET?

A: Your time tickets will open up in an order based on the number of credits you are coming in with. Once your time ticket opens, you will be able to register for classes from the portal.
