FAQs
300 new students each Fall
By invitation only; students are identified and invited before New Student Orientation.
The 360 Program provides support in collaboration with existing services on campus,
including faculty, financial aid advisors, housing, and more. While our 360 Instructors
take on a coaching role, they serve as a supplement to your academic advisor who will
guide you on course enrollment and degree completion.
Although the 360 Program does not accept new students through referrals, 360 instructors
are a resource for all 360 students (including sophomores, juniors, and seniors).
Please reach out if you think we can help support upper-level 360 students.
