Destination Arizona programming focuses on three themes that offer new students the opportunity to discover all that Arizona has to offer and support them during their time here.
ACADEMIC ENGAGEMENT
Academic units will be providing new students with resources on how to be a successful student within their program(s) by understanding academic expectations. Additionally, students will be given the opportunity to strengthen and foster their relationship with their academic unit through various activities alongside their peers.
SELF-ADVOCACY
Entering a new environment can be scary and exciting. Arizona has a wide variety of resources and wants students to succeed during their time here. Destination Arizona programming provides students the tools and resources needed to establish confidence in order to advocate for themselves and their well-being; academically and personally.
