Second-Year Experience

Second-Year Experience (SYE) is packed with events designed to reconnect you with your classmates and reintroduce you to the many resources and opportunities Penn has to offer.

Beginning shortly after Move-In, SYE events will bring the Class of 2029 together to explore intellectual and cultural spaces both on campus and throughout Philadelphia. From the Second-Year Celebration: Summer Soirée at the Penn Museum to a Phillies game at Citizens Bank Park, there is something for everyone to enjoy!

Be sure to check your email for more information about additional SYE events and opportunities hosted by your Class Board.

We also encourage you to take full advantage of the opportunities offered by our office throughout the academic year, including the Second-Year Experience (SYE) Grant and the Penn Mentor Meals program.
