Starting college is often a time of exciting, challenging, and sometimes stressful adjustment for students. New to Mizzou is a six-week workshop series providing psychoeducation, experiential activities, and support as students begin their journey at MU. Workshops will cover topics related to: Navigating homesickness, getting connected to campus resources, tips for student success (e.g., when to use what resources, use of office hours, how to appropriately communicate with faculty and staff, etc.), coping with stress, mindfulness practices, and engaging/communicating effectively with roommates and peers. Students may join the workshops any week and stay until they complete the six topics.

This workshop series is intended for students who are experiencing stress and adjustment difficulties related to their transition to MU. These workshops are primarily focused on first-year undergraduate students and may also benefit transfer students and international undergraduate students early in their time at MU.
