Fiesta Friday at CfSS

Don’t forget to register for the Fall semester, and join Fiesta Friday at the Center for Student Success. 

Fiesta Friday offers Freshmen Javelinas an opportunity to register for Fall semester courses from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on April 5. 

The Center for Student Success is located in Room 210 of the Jernigan Library. 

The CfSS encompasses Career Services, Writing Center, UNIV, the tutoring center and advising,  which are all geared in guiding students toward  the path to success.

“The goal of the event is to provide a one-stop shop experience for the students.  Students can look forward to on-the-spot advising with an academic advisor, assistance with registering for summer and fall classes, learning how to use College Scheduler, a program that will help you build your schedule without having to handwrite it, free food and giveaways,” said Veronica Salas, Center for Student Success director of advising.

Faculty advisors will be able to help students navigate through the registration process and help answer any questions students might have.  

While at Fiesta Friday, the CfSS will provide freshmen Javelinas with a tasty nacho bar, and a time to enjoy with friends.

“Fiesta Friday will have a festive atmosphere with giveaways, free food and camaraderie, just like all of the events the Center for Student Success hosts. We will feature a nacho bar with all the fixings, and there will be computers available for students to use to register,” said Nicole Morris, First-Year Seminar coordinator.

The Center for Student Success helps provide a seamless transition from high school to college by offering several resources and guidance for freshmen students. 

The CfSS is dedicated to promoting the success of all students, and is constantly striving to help students attain new levels of accomplishments.

Before attending Fiesta Friday it’s crucial for freshmen Javelinas to meet with their academic advisor to develop a plan and know what classes to enroll in for the Fall. 

The registration process may be confusing, so it is essential to come prepared.

“In any endeavor you do in life, know that you don’t have to do it alone. We are here to be supportive and give our students access to resources in any way we can. It’s the whole idea of community and working together to help our students be successful,” said Patricia Hennessey, First-Year Seminar instructor.

Join Fiesta Friday, and be one of the first to register for the Fall semester. Remember, classes get filled up fast, so take advantage of the opportunity. You can follow the CfSS on Instagram and Twitter @TAMUK_CFSS to keep updated on any upcoming events and workshops.
