FAST Program

Ease your transition to life as a new student at Duquesne University by spending a day on campus at the FAST program. It provides a great introduction to campus life and the student services that will be available to you. 

This program is not mandatory but all new students, particularly those in the Pittsburgh area, are encouraged to come. Please attend one of the two days offered for your prospective school. 

If you have any questions about the FAST program, please call 412.396.5083 or visit the FAST website.
