We are so excited that you are joining the STRIVE community.
A reminder as to why students have chosen STRIVE (based on last year)
I want you to keep this in mind as you embark on this programme. I know some of you are motivated by the 300 RISE points that you can get in doing this programme – an amazing opportunity to enhance your degree award. However, this is an outcome rather than a primary motivation for many. It is important to remember that what you get out, is what you put in!
We have improved STRIVE this year and responded to the recommendations of our evaluation of last year’s programme. Unfortunately, we are currently unable to integrate sessions into your timetable. It will be good for you to tell us as you progress through the programme, whether you think we should.
For STRIVE 200 – we have lots of social events, where you can meet other STRIVERS. Additionally, you have a Faculty PAL and peer guides, as well as STRIVE Ambassadors who will work with you from the start, to provide peer support and mentoring.
