FOCUS

Building FOUNDATIONS OF CONTINUED UNDERGRADUATE SUCCESS is an ongoing process for every first-year student. Participating in a FOCUS Block each semester and exploring self-identity and self with others during the linked In FOCUS session provides structure for this growth.

 FOCUS offers a learning community experience to first-year students who are Regents’ Scholarship recipients in General Academic Programs, College of Liberal Arts, College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, and the Department of Biology.  Mentors from the FOCUS Network student organization participate weekly with first-year students during the non-credit In FOCUS sessions.

Additionally, FOCUS students benefit from professional staff guidance, non-classroom activities led by peer mentors and development of an individual FOCUS Plan for maximizing the educational experience and earning a degree. Participants may request assignment to the optional FOCUS Living-Learning Community in Hobby Hall.

Regents’ Scholars may register for FOCUS at focus.tamu.edu in the spring/summer prior to enrolling at Texas A&M. Students who are not eligible for a Regents’ Scholarship may request placement on the wait list.
