Supporting U
Pioneer students, parents, guardians, and families are invited to our virtual “Supporting U” series to learn more about important information throughout the year.
These one-hour sessions will be held on Zoom and led by various campus departments. The sessions are themed to address popular topics including course registration, Orientation, living on campus, billing and financial aid, student support services, health and wellness, and much more! This is a great way to get your questions answered, stay connected, and learn about upcoming deadlines, processes, and information throughout the year.
Over the summer, the “Supporting U” series will be focused on content for beginning your first semester at Utica University.
The series begins in late June.
