It poses a potential liability for yourself or the University. Counseling services are free to UAA students. The therapist acts as patient advocate and assists individuals in dealing with stressful life events, depression, anxiety, sexual and physical abuse, alcohol and drug dependency, situational crises, and other life issues. A nominal fee is charged for psychotherapy and group sessions. A fee schedule is based on each individual's ability to pay.
Students facing difficulty in their academic progress are in academic trouble.
From the standpoint of an advisor, these deficiencies should be addressed and proper actions to ameliorate them must be taken. The designation of academic probation will be assigned to undergraduate and graduate students whose GPA falls below 2.0 and 3.0 respectively. Students who begin a semester on probation or continuing probation and fail to earn a semester GPA of 2.00 are removed from their degree program and may attend UAA as non-degree seeking students. The penalties for undergraduates failing to meet these requirements will render a student ineligible for participation in intercollegiate competition, are disqualified from receiving financial aid, and will lose their immigration status. Students may appeal academic actions, such as grades.
