Applications are open through May 15th!
ur.umbc.edu/ura
*Special information related to Covid-19:
There are many changes happening to student research as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic and campus closure. The URA selection committee has some advice to encourage you to apply for a URA and start to plan your research, even if there are some unknowns for the summer and fall semesters.
1. We have moved the application deadline back to May 15, 2020 in order to give students some extra time to prepare their research proposals.
2. Some research that was scheduled to start this summer may be delayed until the fall or spring semester- that's ok! The URA is good for the entire year, June 1-2020 to May 31, 2121. You can complete the research at any point during that time frame.
3. Our expectations for a final product are fluid and relaxed. If the research plan doesn't work out exactly as you proposed, that's ok- it's the nature of doing research.
4. Be creative in the ways you think about your project. You may have to focus instead on doing a thorough literature review, using a pre-formed data set to analyze, or looking at case studies, rather than collecting in-person data, or conducting research in a lab.
5. Methods such as lab benchwork, participant observations, focus groups, travel-related, in-person interviews, or other real-time collection methods may need some re-thinking. How can you collect data via online interviews, the internet, or other technological interventions?
6. Creative arts projects may incorporate some kind of online delivery method. We are hoping to be back on campus for URCAD 2021, but consider how VoiceThread might be used to display your creative work.
Remember:
URAs provide up to $1,500 to undergraduate students to support their research, scholarship, or creative work with a UMBC faculty mentor on an original project. UMBC students of all years and disciplines are invited to apply, as long as they will remain enrolled at UMBC long enough to complete the proposed work.
ur.umbc.edu/ura
Deadline: May 15, 2020
Applications require a research proposal and mentor statement of support.
Speciality URAs will be awarded to Social Scientists and Entrepreneurs- see website for more details.

Hi Retrievers!
Hope you're having a great study day! Tutoring may be over, but SI PASS review sessions are happening now! If you are in a course with SI PASS, be on the look out for information about review sessions for your courses.
Speaking of SI PASS, let's get to know Joshua Richards, one of our amazing SI PASS leaders!
Tell us about yourself!
I’m a physics major and astrophysics minor. I’m a sophomore and I am an SI/PASS leader for PHYS 121.
Tell us what else you do for the UMBC community.
I’m a member of the Alpha Omega campus ministry. We’re part of the Greater Baltimore church and we perform around the greater Baltimore area.
Why did you get involved with the Academic Success Center?
I like helping students realize they’re smarter than they think they are. I feel like that’s why a lot of people fail because they think they can’t do it. The first step to achieve something is to believe you can achieve it.
Why do you love your job?
I love seeing students get the aha! Moment “like I finally got it” and I like changing people’s perspectives about physics. I don’t convert people to physics majors, but I like getting them to say they don’t hate it or it wasn’t that bad.
Ideal pizza and why?
Y’all are gonna think this is weird but, mushroom and green pepper. Y’all sleeping on it, but I can feel it in my soul. Mushroom and green pepper—that be hittin it! Y’all haven’t tried it, put yourself on!
Good stuff! And if you're in PHYS 121, you can put yourself on to the PHYS 121 review session with Joshua! The session is scheduled for Thursday, May 14th at 4:30 p.m. Happy studying!
#UMBCtogether
(Editor's note: While the Academic Success Center does not endorse any specific pizza places, Joshua insists that you have to try this combination from Papa John's or else it won't taste right. Please enjoy pizza responsibly.)

Hi Retrievers,
The end of classes is nigh and finals are coming up! We want to take this time to remind you of all the policy options available to you for the Spring 2020 semester.
Students will have until June 10, 2020 (two weeks after grades are out) to make decisions about changing to a Pass Fail grading method or withdrawing (W) for a class. We know you have questions, so we summarized everything you need to know in this handy FAQ.
A few quick notes:
Changing your grading option to a P/F or withdrawing from a class will be done through the Registrar's office. You will NOT need to submit a petition through the Academic Success Center.
Changing your grading option to a P/F or withdrawing from a class (W) is considered final. Once you make the choice, you cannot change your mind. Before doing anything, we encourage you to talk to your advisor and a financial aid counselor to see how a change might impact you.
A P cannot be used for ENGL 100.
This FAQ contains all of the pass/fail policies for each department at UMBC, including all departments under CAHSS, COEIT, and CNMS as well as the policies for the Erickson School of Aging Studies, the School of Social Work, Individualized Study, and Honors College.
If you are starting to think about either of these policies, please be sure to read the FAQ and consult with your advisor before making any decisions. There is still plenty of time to consider all of your options before June 10th.
In the meantime, do your best on finals! We're almost there!
