April 10, 2015

University Relations

UAF's Student Support Services will host the Emerging Scholars Academy, an intensive academic orientation program, from Aug. 17-28, 2015.

The academy is primarily for local freshmen who are seeking a bachelor's degree and are eligible for SSS services, meaning they have low incomes, are first-generation college enrollees or have documented disabilities.

Those who complete the academy can get free credit for two core classes — a savings of more than $1,000.

This is program's second year. This year's academy has expanded to include a component to ensure proper math placement.
