What is the Insight Session?

• This is an hour-long meeting with about 5-8 other ELASP for Transfers students, Program Manager for Student Experience, and the Director for Student Success, Whitney Johnson. In this meeting, Whitney and Megan will be asking about your transition as well as helping you with questions or concerns you may have going into your first semester at Bauer.

What should I expect in an individual peer mentor meeting?

• These meetings are driven by you, the student. You can expect that your peer mentor will ask you about your goals for the semester, as well as how things are going your first semester. This is also an opportunity to talk about your classes, ask questions about what it is like to be in Bauer, and gain insight on your peer mentor’s experiences in their college career.

When and where are all the ELASP Workshops?

What are students saying about being in ELASP for Transfers their first semester?

• “ELASP is a great program that incoming Bauer students have the privilege to be a part of. The program was wonderful and it helped me a great deal in reaching my academic aspirations. Not only did the program help me academically, but I was also introduced to hard-working, kind and intelligent people who shared my goals. ELASP made all the difference in my transition to Bauer.”
• “ELASP helped me establish my UH GPA through flexibility and support.”
• “ELASP helped me transition into Bauer in the sense that I was aware of what Bauer, and also UH, had to offer in order to help me be a successful new student; this included volunteering opportunities, services available like counseling, study labs and meeting people in my field of study who could help me when I needed them. Overall, ELASP created a sense of belonging, which honestly was a great incentive for me to be an outstanding student and person.”
