Academic Recovery Program Contract

Academic Recovery Program

Contract and Academic Plan

The University at Albany is committed to helping students navigate their path to academic success. We are here to help you as you begin your academic recovery and return to good academic standing.

The Academic Recovery Program (ARP) provides personalized and collaborative support to students in academic alert or academic notice standing. As part of the Academic Recovery Program, students are partnered with an ARP advocate who can help them discover their academic strengths and weaknesses, connect them to campus resources that can provide additional academic support such as tutoring, coaching, and mentoring, and help them create a unique plan to overcome their academic barriers.

Students who participate in the Academic Recovery Program may also be required to enroll in the UUNI 150: Pathways to Academic Success course. This is a 1-credit course aimed to equip students with skills needed to be successful in their classes. Students enrolled in the course will meet weekly with their instructor to learn time management, develop study skills, discover the type of learner they are, become aware of services and resources offered to students on campus, and much more!

Connect with my ARP advocate and/or UUNI 150 instructor weekly
Use the strategies provided by my advocate/instructor to improve my academic performance
Attend tutoring sessions and/or workshops relevant to my courses
