FAF 2111 - Faulkner Foundations-Transfer

The Faulkner Foundations-Transfer course focuses on the orientation of transfer students to Faulkner University. The purpose of this class is to provide transfer students with the skills necessary to make a smooth transition from their previous college/university to Faulkner University. Faculty members from various disciplines lead the classes that are taught in such a way to engage the transfer student as he/ she: explores factors influencing the transition into Faulkner; develops skills to enhance academic success with a focus on student responsibility; and develops skills to enhance spiritual formation and a Christian worldview. In addition, students are introduced to Faulkner policies and procedures, campus facilities and resources, and University expectations and challenges.

This course is part of the University’s Student Success program and is required of all new students with more than 12 hours of transfer credit. This course is taken as a general elective course but cannot count for a psychology, counseling, sociology, criminal justice, or other social science requirement in any program including BBA, BCJ, BCJ-Corrections, FSM, and HRM. Offered every semester.
