This section has information for undergraduate students. Navigate to the sidebar menu to find information about becoming a peer advisor, first term enrollment, curriculum worksheets, and more.
Student Life
Make the most of your Syracuse experience by getting involved. Get to know your faculty, staff, and classmates.
Beyond the classroom, consider becoming a VPA peer advisor, joining a student group, holding a leadership position, seeking student employment, and getting involved in the community via Syracuse University’s Mary Ann Shaw Center for Public & Community Service. Whatever the combination, we encourage you to seek opportunities for personal and professional growth through activities that suit your goals and interests.
