First Year Experience Student Pledge


At St. Philip's College, we believe every new Tiger deserves the strongest possible start. The First Year Experience (FYE) is not just a program, it's part of the culture of SPC and the way we welcome, guide, and celebrate our new students. Through guidance from staff and Peer Mentors, workshops, campus events, and academic check-ins, FYE helps you learn how college works and how to succeed one step at a time.

As a member of the SPC Tiger FAMILIA, I understand that:
  • FYE is part of my first year at St. Philip's College.
  • Students start college and FYE at different times and in different ways.
  • The expectations below are designed to keep me on the path to success.
I am committed to completing my program of study and doing my best to complete as many First Year Experience Student Success Checklist items as possible, including:
  • Submitting my First Year Experience Student Pledge
  • Attending the one-day FYE Extended Orientation.
  • Attending Tiger Nation Family Day.
  • Attending at least 1 academic workshops per semester.
  • Attending at least 1 SPC-sponsored event per semester.
  • Submitting a midterm grade sheet each semester.
  • Attending tutoring if my GPA falls below a 2.5
Celebrating Success

Students who complete at least 3 items on the checklist and submit their midterm grades each semester will be entered into a drawing for exciting prizes, including laptops, iPads, and scholarships.
