UD Global Academic Support

Chapel

As a UD Global student, you will have free, easy access to academic support from
the University of Dubuque. This support includes the following:

  • Career Services- The University of Dubuque's Office of Vocation, Career Services, and Community Engagement is here to help students prepare for their chosen vocation and future endeavors. Whether you are exploring careers, looking for engagement opportunities, applying for an internship, or considering graduate school, we provide support for whatever phase you are on in your educational journey. Through consultations, virtual resources, and meaningful community connections, you will feel prepared for your next step. Your journey starts today!
  • Accessibility Services- The University of Dubuque complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendment Act of 2008 (ADAAA), Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Fair Housing Act, and other applicable federal and state laws that prohibit discrimination on the basis of disability. UD encourages students with documented disabilities to fully participate in the community of the University of Dubuque. All faculty, staff, and administrators will actively support students with disabilities in all the University's educational programs, services, and activities.
  • Library Resources- As a UD Global student, you will have full access to all library resources and databases online.
  • Tutoring- The Academic Success Center (ASC) offers course-specific tutoring to assist students in understanding course concepts, homework assignments, and preparing for exams.
  • Writing Consulting- The ASC offers writing consulting to assist students with writing assignments for any course. Our writing consultants can provide guidance in all stages of the writing process including brainstorming, research, content development, organization, formatting, and citations. They do not merely proofread papers.
  • Professor Office Hours- You will receive specific online office hours to be able to meet with your professor to ask specific questions or get more clarification/information on specific topics if needed. You may always reach them by their preferred contact method daily, but this is an extra option if you have something pressing.
  • TimelyCare- The University of Dubuque partners with TimelyCare to provide students with 24/7 virtual access to medical and mental health services. Services include on-demand medical care for common illnesses, 24/7 mental health support through "TalkNow," scheduled counseling, and health coaching. Students can access these services for free via the TimelyCare website or app, using their school email address to register.
