Reminders and Resources

  • Coronavirus Updates
    • Please note that updates surrounding Coronavirus and UP’s actions will continue to be posted here.
  • Talking to Your Student About Anti-Racism
    • If you are having conversations with your student about topics such as racism and diversity, this list of resources is a good starting place.
  • Virtual Writing Assistance Available All Summer
    • While the in-person Writing Center will remain closed until further notice, virtual writing assistance is available for all students taking courses at UP this summer. To make an appointment, students can simply email writing@up.edu and a writing assistant will get back to them within 24 hours.
  • Returning Rented Textbooks
    • If your student rented their textbooks through UP’s Bookstore, please read through the detailed steps listed in the Bookstore FAQ section on how to obtain a shipping label and return the books.
  • Reduced Tuition for Summer Internship Courses
    • Students who complete summer internships have the option to complete their internships for credit. Tuition for the College of Arts & Sciences summer internship courses will be $333 per 1 credit, which is one-third the rate of regular summer session tuition. This applies to CAS courses numbered 297, 397, 497, and 597. Most internship courses count for upper division electives toward the major. Internships for credit are not limited to the Portland area. Students are welcome to complete internships virtually, in their hometown, or even another country during the summer and still register for credit. Students who want to complete their internship for credit this summer should contact Elizabeth Jones, CAS Academic Internship Coordinator, at jonesel@up.edu
  • Campus Ministry Summer Resources:
    • Stream Mass Online: Mass will continue to be live-streamed on Sundays at 10:30 a.m. and Monday through Friday at 12:05 p.m. (Pacific Time) while public Masses remain suspended. All are invited into virtual participation.
    • Contact Campus Ministry: The Campus Ministry office will remain open virtually as we enter the summer months. If your student is seeking resources or would like to reach a Campus Minister, they can contact ministry@up.edu or leave a voicemail at 503.943.7131.
