Academic and Advising Updates

Winter Intersession is an accelerated academic term that runs from December 22, 2025, to January 8, 2026. Students can earn up to five credits during this time through fully online, asynchronous courses. This term is designed to help students maintain academic momentum, stay on track for graduation, explore new subjects, or gain hands-on skills they may not have had time to pursue during regular semesters.

Over the past three semesters, the Davis College Success Center and Adventure WV have collaborated to offer an Academic Mindset course (ANRD 293C: Grow Your Mindset) for students navigating the challenges of academic probation. Instead of following a more traditional instructional path with homework or out-of-class assignments, the course instead focuses on in-class discussions, activities, and success coaching sessions with the intent of helping students build resilience, self-efficacy, and goal-setting skills.
