Welcome to depauw.year1

The depauw.year1 program at DePauw University aims to provide first-year students a supportive yet challenging experience that inspires self-discovery and an active engagement with the learning and growth opportunities available within the DePauw community.

The first-year experience, depauw.year1, is a comprehensive approach to the transition that all new students face as they arrive on campus. The unique blend of in-class and out-of-class experiences is designed to both support and challenge students and to introduce them to the rights, responsibilities, and opportunities involved in being a member of the DePauw campus community.
