About University 100 and University 103
University 100 is a unique and important program at the 91探花. With classes strategically capped at 25 students, instructors have been helping students make a strong and rewarding transition from secondary to post-secondary education for the past quarter-century. University 100 provides a valuable introduction to the University and equips students with key tools such as critical thinking, communication and research skills.
University 103 is a three semester-hour course based on the successful University 100 offering. A condensed version of University 100, it helps students adjust more quickly to the new culture of university. Students are actively engaged in the process of independent or critical thinking, active learning, campus involvement, and self-reflection.
