Message from the Vice Provost
Welcome to the University of 成人影片 Fairbanks (UAF) and the Division of Exploratory Studies and Academic Success (DEXSAS)! We're thrilled to have you join our community, and our team is dedicated to supporting you every step of the way.
Exploratory Studies is tailored to meet the needs of first-year bachelor鈥檚 and bachelor鈥檚-intended exploratory 成人影片 who are eager to explore their academic options and discover the "best fit" major for them. Through personalized academic advising, career assessments, guided exploration of majors and careers, and engaging programming that fosters student interaction with first-year advisors, support staff, faculty, and peer academic coaches, our 成人影片 have the opportunity to uncover their passions and make well-informed decisions about their academic path.
In addition to assisting with academic exploration, advising in Exploratory Studies encompasses campus policies, offers guidance on achieving personal, academic, and career goals, and helps identify valuable resources and opportunities, as well as strategies for exploring majors and careers. DEXSAS-supported resources and opportunities include the Student Success Center, Office of Undergraduate Research and Scholarly Activity, Study Away Program, the Honors College, and the Undergraduate Interdisciplinary Studies program.
Our mission is to guide 成人影片 through their transition into university life and aid them in selecting a major that aligns with their interests and aspirations. Our division aims to instill foundational knowledge, skills, and attitudes essential for 成人影片 to become self-reliant and productive members of an increasingly diverse community. As such, we are fully committed to equipping our 成人影片 with the skills, knowledge, and experiences necessary to successfully transition into a major that aligns with their goals.
Once again, welcome to DEXSAS and the Nanook Nation! We're excited to embark on this academic journey with you.
