FSU is combining all student and employee email accounts in one system to make it easier for students to collaborate with professors, classmates and coworkers. 

On the evening of May 4, all student email accounts will upgrade to @fsu.edu email addresses. After the change, your student will have a new Office 365 account and email mailbox and their email will end with @fsu.edu instead of @my.fsu.edu. This is where your student will receive all official university communications. 

The Spring 2022 semester is ending on April 29, 2022. It’s typical for students to daydream about their upcoming time off and all of the fun plans that they have for the summer, but there are still a few weeks left of classes before then. Here are a few tips on how your student can finish out the semester strong.

The Oglesby Union has been a staple at Florida State University in some form or another since the 1940s. The FSU Student Union is an engaging and diverse community that fosters individual and collective learning through outstanding services and opportunities for involvement. The Union values community, opportunity, discovery and excellence to ensure a worthwhile experience for the students on campus.

April is a significant month for students of faith. Muslim students celebrate Ramadan, Jewish students celebrate Pesach, Hindu students celebrate Ram Navini, and Christian students celebrate Holy Week and Easter. Collectively, we know these times as “holidays.” Just under the surface of that word, you can see the underpinnings of “holy” days.  

The month of February is most commonly known as the month of love! At Florida State, some great conversations are happening on campus centering  around what it means to show love and have a healthy relationship. 

On January 31st, New Student and Family Programs hosted an FSU Chats session titled “Springing into Action” which featured representatives from the Career Center, the Center for Leadership and Social Change, and the Academic Center for Excellence. The purpose of this chat was to provide families with resources to help their students spring back into action following winter break.

This month, we are spotlighting FSU’s African American Studies program! Located in the College of Social Sciences and Public Policy, African American Studies is an interdisciplinary program that offers three major tracks as well as a minor. The program utilizes faculty from several departments within the College and beyond, and it offers students the opportunity to understand American society from the unique vantage-point of Americans of African Descent.

The start of a new semester can bring a lot of thoughts and emotions whether you are the newest Nole on campus or this is your final semester here at Florida State. WelcomeFSU is here to welcome back our amazing students and give them plenty of safe, engaging events to kick off the start of an amazing semester.

A new semester means an opportunity for a fresh start for your student. We hope that you enjoyed spending quality time with your student during their Winter Break and were able to reconnect and reflect fondly on their last few months (or years) at Florida State!
