  • AlcoholEdu Part 2 Due 3/6 Required for New Student

    AlcoholEdu is a university-wide online alcohol education program that is mandatory for all incoming students.  Through this course, students will gain valuable knowledge about alcohol and its physiological effects, explore campus trends, correct misperceptions about alcohol use and learn risk-reduction strategies to help them navigate their college experience.  

    • Students should have completed Part 1 of the course during winter intersession, before arriving on campus.
    • Part 2 of the course is available 45 days after the student completed Part 1.  The 45 days in-between Part 1 and 2 are immovable.
    • Students will start to receive emails over the next few weeks, inviting them to take Part 2 of the course. Part 2 only takes about 10 minutes to complete
    • This course is integral to providing our students with baseline knowledge around a critical issue that they will all face, whether they choose to drink or not. 
    • The final deadline for taking Part 2 is March 6th, 2018 by NOON.
    • Please remind your students to complete Part 2 of AlcoholEdu.   Your assistance in this process could have a significant impact on the completion rate of the incoming class. 
    • Students can find information and instructions for completing AlcoholEdu by visiting alcoholedu.uconn.edu.
    • Students who do not complete Part 2 of AlcoholEdu by the deadline will have an academic hold placed on their account, which will prevent them from registering for Fall 2018 classes until AlcoholEdu is completed.

    We appreciate your help in promoting the health, safety and wellness of your students by reminding them to complete this important and educational requirement.
