WHAT WILL YOUR FIRST-YEAR STUDENTS READ?

Dear First-Year Administrator,

We’ve combed through all of our titles, new and classic, to compile a list of our best books for first-year experience reading programs on one website.

Our 2025-2026 First-Year Student catalog is available for immediate download here. If you need complimentary sample books for your committee members, please fill out our dedicated request form.  You can also feel free to reach out to us if you’d like to talk through some common read options; we’re happy to set up a phone call or video chat to help you find some options!
