Academic Recovery Program

What is the Academic Recovery Program?

The University of Houston-Downtown's Academic Recovery Program is here to support first-year students on academic probation get back into good academic standing. As part of the Academic Recovery Program, students will have an assigned coordinated care unit dedicated to their success and be enrolled in a zero-credit student success course. The coordinated care unit team consists of the following members:

1. Your Student Success Course Instructor
2. Your Peer Mentor assigned to the course
3. Your Success Advisor
4. Your Academic Coach

Who is Eligible to Participate in the Academic Recovery Program?

Is there a Cost to Participate?

There is no tuition associated with the student success course, and there are no books required. There is a $100 course fee.
