Upon enrollment, each student is assessed for their academic skills and receives a personalized study plan which meets their academic goal. UIS counselling and the academic team work closely together to carefully assess students’ needs. Each study plan is designed specifically for each student. Study plans are monitored and revised as needed by our councilors, teachers, and academic team.
