Additional Resources

The my academic progress tool provides you with an opportunity to self-reflect on how you are doing in your course, if you are meeting the educational requirements, if you are on target to complete the work in the course, and how your academic progress may be interacting with your disability-related needs. Once you are able to reflect and rate your progress you will be guided to resources to support you in meeting your goals.
