Freshman Counselors (FroCos)

A hallmark of the residential college system, the Freshman Counselor program pairs Yale College seniors with a group of first-year students, helping them make the transition to college and to Yale. FroCos live in residential college dorms with their students, helping them navigate academic, social, and cultural life in Yale College. FroCos work closely with residential college deans and receive training and support from the Yale College Dean’s Office.
