First Year Interest Groups
If you're a first-time first-year student at Pace, you will be a part of a First Year Interest Group (FIG). Each FIG is built around a common interest. You will enjoy fun activities that are designed with your interest in mind, and you will get to know a professor who sponsors the FIG throughout the semester. Form lasting friendships and become part of a close-knit community.
