Student Academic Services supports all students on their path into and through the university, while also advocating for students who need more connection and support. Using collaboration and best practices we challenge students to shape a meaningful UW experience. We believe the University should be a place of discovery and insight and that learning thrives in community. Please be in touch with your ideas and questions.

Academic Support Programs (ASP) creates transformative educational experiences to help students thrive academically at the University of Washington. Committed to a diverse and inclusive university, we develop varied models of peer-to-peer support to help all students succeed. These models include a multidisciplinary study center (The Center for Learning and Undergraduate Enrichment, or CLUE), Academic Success Coaching, and intentional collaboration with campus partners.

The Digital Engagement team supports all units in Student Academic Services (SAS) with communication initiatives. The Digital Engagement team:

• Maintains the structure of all SAS websites
• Develops first-year student-focused communications
• Oversees the New Huskies social media accounts

First Year Programs (FYP) fosters a successful undergraduate student experience through strategic programming that focuses on meaningful academic transitions and the development of learning communities. Through partnerships with faculty, staff, alumni, and student leaders, our programs create the space for students to define how they will engage, learn, and thrive at the University of Washington.

Programs include: U101, Advising & Orientation, Dawg Daze, First-year Interest Group (FIG) program, First-year Networks, and the Commuter & Transfer Commons (CTC).

Undergraduate Academic Affairs Advising provides advising services to all undergraduate pre-majors. Advisers help undergraduates understand the UW’s academic system, explore interests, examine possible majors, and discover campus resources.
