You're new to SFU this September (Fall) 2026 term. Let us show you around before our big Welcome Day!
About this Event

It’s time to get FASS Familiar. SFU's Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (FASS) is excited to welcome you for a sneak peak at our campus prior to September 8 in-person Welcome Day. We want to show you our spaces and our faces!

Come check out Arts Central (our student hub), the FASS buildings where you will be taking classes, and meet other students as well as our FASS Peer Mentors. Our FASS Peer Mentors will be taking you (and up to 15 other new students) on a tour of FASS and guiding you along as you discover SFU's beautiful Burnaby campus. We are only offering 6 tours, so capacity is limited.

These tours start at Arts Central (AQ 3020) in the Academic Quadrangle at SFU Burnaby campus.

Please note: these tours are for FASS students only starting their first term at SFU this Fall (September) 2026 semester.

Dates & times:

September 1, 2 & 3

10:30–12:00pm OR 1–2:30 pm
