First-Year Counselors (known as FroCos) are seniors in Branford who have been selected by the Dean and the Head of College to serve as residential counselors to first-year students. FroCos reside on Old Campus and are an integral part of the advising structure in Yale College. In addition to serving as an advising resource, they assist with assuring the safety and well-being of the incoming class. Each FroCo is assigned a “FroCo group” of between 15-20 students, but first years are welcome and encouraged to get to know everyone in their FroCo team and to go to any FroCo with questions or concerns.
