Let's get you started!
NevadaFIT information
August 16-21, 2025
NevadaFIT is a required, one-credit intensive academic program for first-year students that begins one week prior to the fall semester. Students will move in early so they are ready to engage in this on-campus college-before-college experience. It is designed to help students successfully transition from high school to college and provides realistic exposure to the style, pace, intensity, and rigor of college courses. After completing NevadaFIT, students are better prepared for their first semester of college.
TransferFIT information
August 16-21, 2025 (in-person)
August 25-December 5, 2025 (online or in-person)
TransferFIT is an optional*, three-credit course that is designed to meet some of the unique needs of transfer students. This course helps ease the transition into the University of Nevada, Reno while supporting students in building a community with their peers. The first in-person week of the course coincides with NevadaFIT but then continues into through the fall semester either in-person or online. Spots are limited, so students must fill out the application to be enrolled in the course.
*TransferFIT is required for all transfer students living in the Transfer LLC.
