Year-Long Plan<br />

One <strong>of</strong> the most important features <strong>of</strong> the <strong>AIM</strong><br />

<strong>Program</strong> is its year-long learning plan designed<br />

to strengthen <strong>and</strong> enhance studentsÕ existing<br />

academic skills. Students begin their UF career<br />

in the six-week Summer B term by enrolling in<br />

one <strong>of</strong> three different math courses. Additionally,<br />

students register for a three-credit English<br />

class, which helps them gain confidence in their<br />

ability to comprehend, discuss, <strong>and</strong> underst<strong>and</strong><br />

the basics <strong>of</strong> college-level writing. Students who<br />

successfully complete the year-long learning plan<br />

will fulfill all <strong>of</strong> their math <strong>and</strong> half <strong>of</strong> their<br />

writing Gordon Rule requirement.<br />

Academic Advising<br />

Academic advisors are available to inform <strong>AIM</strong><br />

students about the requirements for their majors.<br />

While in the <strong>AIM</strong> <strong>Program</strong>, students must meet<br />

with an academic advisor in order to get<br />

assistance in selecting courses <strong>and</strong> to assess<br />

their academic progress. For more information,<br />

read the <strong>AIM</strong> FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)<br />

online at www.advising.ufl.edu/aim.<br />

Housing<br />

Since all housing contracts at the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>Florida</strong> are established on a first-come, firstplaced<br />

system, <strong>AIM</strong> students should pay<br />

specific attention to all literature distributed by<br />

the Division <strong>of</strong> Housing. Students must sign a<br />

housing contract well before the start <strong>of</strong> the<br />

summer semester in order to ensure a space<br />

in an on-campus residential hall.<br />

Financial Aid<br />

All <strong>AIM</strong> students are encouraged to apply for<br />

financial aid as early as possible. Many <strong>AIM</strong><br />

students will qualify for assistance with college<br />

costs, especially since they are admitted to the<br />

summer term. However, all financial awards<br />

are made on a priority basis, so the sooner<br />

students apply, the better their chances.<br />

Students should also arrange for direct deposit<br />

with their financial institution to help speed up<br />

the process.<br />
