This paper describes the design and outcomes ofthe Preparation for Academic Success in Science (PASS) transition program in the Faculty of Science at the University of Windsor, amid-sized university in Ontario, Canada. The two-day PASS program, offered in the week before fall classes begin, is designed to introduce incoming students to effective study habits, note taking, and preparation for examinations. Moreover, students are advised on how to get involved in undergraduate research, study abroad, service learning, internships, and student organizations, while balancing their time, health and wellness. Results from PASS cohorts between 2017 and 2019 suggest that students who participated in the PASS program had higher major and overall averages in their first and subsequent years, and significantly greater engagement in extracurricular activities compared to the (control group) students who did not participate in the transition program. PASS is presented as an effective transition program, but it is argued that further study is required to determine how academic performance and engagement are related to the intentionality of the student when they start university, and the importance of the program to building community and a sense of belonging.  \nLa transition entre l’école secondaire et l’université peut s’avérer difficile et stressante pour denombreux étudiants et de nombreuses étudiantes qui ne savent pas comment réussir à leurs cours ets’impliquer dans les activités extracurriculaires au-delà de la salle de classe. Cet article décrit la conception et les résultats du programme de transition PASS (Preparation for Academic Success in Science) de la faculté des sciences de l’Université de Windsor, une université de taille moyenne del’Ontario, au Canada. Le programme PASS de deux jours, offert au cours de la semaine qui précède ledébut des cours en automne, est conçu pour introduire les nouveaux étudiants et les nouvelles étudiantes à des habitudes de travail efficaces, à la prise de notes et à la préparation aux examens. De plus, il est conseillé aux étudiants et aux étudiantes de s’impliquer dans la recherche au premier cycle, dans les programmes d’études à l’étranger, dans l’apprentissage par le service, dans les internats et dans les organisations d’étudiants et d’étudiantes, et on leur indique la manière de le faire tout en équilibrant leur emploi du temps, leur santé et leur bien-être.
