Survival Tips

Summer session is challenging. You are taking multiple courses (6-9 credits) in an accelerated format. You are in classes all day during the weekdays and have assignments during the evenings and weekends. Regular classes are being condensed into just a few week. You have left your home, job, and family / support people. While the ASLEI and TASL programs limit your time away, the stress is real. The result is the residential summer sessioin provides you with the academic foundation you need to successfully complete your program. 

• Drink Water (Often!)

  Altitude sickness is a very real thing. You will be living and studying at a mile above sea level. No matter where you are from, keep yourself hydrated!

• Grow Where You Are At

  You are here to learn – allow yourself to step out of your comfort zone, be open to learning new things, and continue to question and challenge yourself. You are here to grow as a student, person, and professional. Comparing yourself to your classmates is unproductive and often adds to your stress level.

• You Get What You Give

  The more work you put into the program, the more you will get out of it.

• Build Relationships

  Classmates are your best support system. They understand what you are going through and can empathize. Classmates can also provide alternate points of view and serve as additional information sources to the curriculum being taught.

• Respect Each Student

  Trust and sharing makes a great learning community. What happens in class stays in class.

• Schedule Down Time

  The summer session is rigorous and can be stressful. Be sure to find time to relax; take a walk, exercise, breathe deeply.
