AIS Option for Fall 2026
by Jade Martinez
Hello Advising Community,
I'm writing to share information about a new course for this fall: AIS 2913 - Advanced Academic Introduction and Strategies.
This course will substitute for AIS in the core and will be offered Thursdays 12pm-1:15pm Online only, at a set time.
AIS 2913 is meant for students who have 24-29 hours who still need credit for AIS, and the course is in partnership with Podium Education.
Academic advisors can provide a Q1 pre-requisite override for the course.
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Thank you for helping to recruit students for this course!
Jade Martinez, M.Ed.
Director of Interdisciplinary Education and Downtown Academic Advising
