October is a lively month: you’ll celebrate your very first UWF Homecoming, meet with your advisor to register for Spring classes, and have the opportunity to engage with some of your favorite services and offices at Halloween-themed events.
Mark your calendars for Friday 13 for some not-so-spooky academic to-dos:
GO ARGOS!
Tutoring is available both in-person and virtually for most general subjects. Drop-in for a tutoring session or schedule a session that fits your schedule. Don’t need a tutor? Try academic coaching or attend academic success workshops and study hall.
If you're not sure about your current major or career choice, schedule a Career and Major Exploration appointment in Handshake. You will meet with a Career Coach to explore your options and discuss strategies that can help you make an informed decision.
Use your phone to get more connected to campus. UWF offers mobile apps for a variety of things: Registering for Group Fitness classes, Outdoor Adventure trips or Intramural Sports, attending athletic events, campus safety and contacting UWF police, finding out what events are happening on campus, and more.
At this point in the semester, academic support staff will contact you if there are concerns about your performance in class. If staff reach out to you via this ‘early warning alert’ process, don’t panic! Use your UWF resources listed on this page and work with your faculty and staff to help formulate a plan to get yourself back on track. Your advisor, tutoring and learning resources, the writing lab and your professors are all here to help you.
Check to see if you have any holds and get those cleared, so when Spring class registration opens up, you can snag those coveted spots without having to wait on a hold to be cleared. Instructions on how to check for holds are available on the Confluence page linked in this headline.
Checkout Halloween-themed activities, events and resources happening on campus during spooky season.
It’s good luck to possess or find a golden fleece on campus! At UWF, the Golden Fleece symbolizes resilience, resourcefulness, leadership, and a willingness to work together to achieve one’s goals.
