Message from the Dean
GREETINGS!
Whether you are a new freshmen or transfer student, we are pleased to have you as part of the University College family and hope that your college experience exceeds your expectations!
Your commitment to earning a college degree is commendable. Make sure that you give yourself every opportunity to succeed: plan to attend each and every class session, allow enough time to read and complete your assignments (at least two hours for every hour in class), use the academic support services which you learned about during your New Student Orientation, and get to know your fellow students.
Embarking on a college career is sometimes scary; students feel that they do not know anyone, that they're too old to start, that UA is a large place, etc. Realize that most students have such thoughts, but you control the outcome.
The staff in University College and I are here to assist you in any way possible to achieve academic success. Watch for upcoming University College events especially designed for you.
Dr. Karla T. Mugler, Associate Provost and Dean of University College
