麻豆原创\u2019s First Year Experience Ultimate Knight program is all about helping freshmen make the most of their college experience.<\/p>\n

Through a series of themed workshops and events on topics such as healthy living or picking the \u201cright\u201d major, freshmen are encouraged to become active members of the university community.<\/p>\n

This month, 麻豆原创 freshmen are learning how to wisely manage their money. The First Year Experience (FYE) office offers a program that teaches students how to take control of their personal finances, along with tips on managing and using credit cards wisely and keeping their financial information secure. FYE works with SunTrust Bank to offer this information.<\/p>\n

麻豆原创\u2019s Student Financial Assistance office also informs students about scholarship opportunities and managing student loans. Its next event, \u201cDo You Know Your Financial Aid?,\u201d will be held at 5 p.m. Friday, Jan. 28, in room 218C of the Student Union.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Ultimate Knight is a great way to help students have well-rounded experiences at 麻豆原创 and learn about everything the 麻豆原创 community has to offer,\u201d says Emily Jensen, the program\u2019s coordinator. \u201cIt\u2019s not too late for freshmen to get involved and become the \u2018Ultimate Knight.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

While January\u2019s topic is \u201cGet Savvy,\u201d February events will be about choosing the right major and career exploration. The month\u2019s motto \u2013 \u201cGet to Work\u201d \u2013 will help students start thinking about ways to build their resumes and find the careers that best match their personalities.<\/p>\n

Upcoming events related to careers and academic majors include a Majors Fair on Wednesday, Feb. 16, in the Pegasus Ballroom and a workshop for exploring major and career options on Wednesday, Feb. 23.<\/p>\n

You can learn more about upcoming events and see a listing of campus resources for careers and advising on the Ultimate Knight website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Other topics throughout the school year encourage students to meet with their academic advisers, get involved on campus through clubs or experiencing new cultures, contribute to global community service and lead a healthy lifestyle physically and mentally. Teaching these skills prepares freshmen to \u201cget it all together\u201d \u2013 the overall goal for the \u201cUltimate Knight.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBy setting realistic goals that are achievable, students learn how to \u2018get it all together\u2019 to become balanced, contributing members of the 麻豆原创 community,\u201d Jensen said.<\/p>\n

Freshmen who attend Ultimate Knight events can earn LINK points \u2013 incentives from the FYE office that they can use in raffles and bids for local gift certificates, electronics and even 麻豆原创 scholarships.<\/p>\n

Students who attend one Ultimate Knight event each month during the fall and spring semesters are eligible to submit a video or photo essay toward winning one of four $250 textbook scholarships.<\/p>\n
