As another school year begins, I want to reaffirm my commitment to ensuring UAA is an equitable, inclusive environment where every member of our community feels safe and supported. Please review the following information and updates related to equity and Title IX compliance.

Beginning Sept. 1, students, staff and faculty will have access to two trainings, the annual Title IX training and a special COVID-19 training designed for the university community.

With the start of the fall semester upon us, the UAA Incident Management Team (IMT) wishes to reiterate the processes and procedures in place to safeguard the well-being of our community from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. As you are likely aware, we have implemented a number of measures and support resources to help prevent the transmission of the virus and comply with guidance, recommendations and mandates from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and our state and local governments.

Join New Student Orientation for their weekly Compass Workshop Series focusing on first year student transition. The September series are also co-sponsored with First Year Student Advising and Success and Career Services.

You can find out if your instructor has placed any course materials including textbooks on reserve at the Consortium Library at our website. ​We know that textbooks can be expensive. Visit the library's Textbooks page (libguides.consortiumlibrary.org/textbooks) for more suggestions on how to lower your textbook costs.

The UAA/APU Consortium Library is open to students with a valid UA ID. If you don’t have a UAA ID, we can make one for you. We have laptops along with earbuds available for use within the building for attending classes, and we have laptops that can be checked out to take home.
