UAP Advocates are dedicated to guiding scholars toward success by supporting their academic, personal, social, financial, and career development. They build trusting relationships through regular meetings, offering personalized support tailored to each student’s unique background and challenges. Advocates help students overcome obstacles while encouraging a growth mindset, honoring their achievements, and celebrating their successes every step of the way.

- Build strong connections with scholars to understand their needs and goals.
- Facilitate connections with academic advisors and campus resources.
- Promote self-advocacy and life-long skills for success.
- Maintain consistent communication to support scholar progress.
At UAP, our advocates are committed to empowering scholars to excel academically and personally, nurturing their confidence and supporting their journey from their first step into our office all the way to graduation.
