When Davion Harris, 18, started his jmcomicÂț»N undergraduate journey this fall, his excitement was tempered by apprehension.
âMy biggest concern was not having it together and just being lost, because Iâm first generation,â he said. âIâm going to have absolutely no knowledge of college ⊠I didnât want to be the typical âlost freshman.'â

Hereâs What Students Are Saying About Their Summer P2E Experience:
"I would recommend the P2E program for incoming freshmen because they have these little activities that just show you what to expect and help ease you into college. So, itâs really beneficial and it really made me a lot more comfortable coming into the fall semester."
âAndrea Navarro, Kinesiology Exercise Science
"The most rewarding part was definitely when I started my fall semester, confident in my math skills and confident in my studying skills. I knew I had the tools to succeed in my academic life."
âJose Sanabria, Computer Science
"The Pathways to Excellence mission is to help new freshmen, straight out of high school, get accustomed to the university and its culture before stepping foot into the actual university. If you have the opportunity, do it. Itâs like a cheat sheet for jmcomicÂț»N!"
âEspii Ruiz, Kinesiology Sports Studies and Peer Mentor
