The first year of study is perhaps considered the most important for the successful path of a student in higher education. One of the biggest challenges of the first year is the successful transition and adjustment of the student from high school / Army to the University. We, at Frederick University, want to ensure the academic success of each student. Therefore, in addition to the support services we provide to all students during their studies, we offer additional activities before the beginning of the academic year in order to help make the transition from Secondary to Higher Education be as smooth as possible.
