Admissions

I few tips that I wish I had before I came to the University of the Virgin Islands are: 1. Choose an academic major in your first year, going undecided can waste you time and if you plan on changing your major, that's not that difficult. 2. When you choose your major (final decision), in depth research all requirements and prerequisites for that major because the general UVI courses and your specialized degree major is largely different. This might sound like a normal thing to do but there are more courses available and required than what your normal paradigm might include. 3. Contact your adviser immediately, their all knowledgeable on what your specific degree program is and can help you in many areas even outside of academics.

Attend Classes regularly
Keep your GPA above 2.5
Talk to a counselor or your supervisor when you are having difficulties in any class.
Keep focus on your studies.
Attend tutoring if you need to.

Make sure you plan and get organized. Don't waste time or procrastinate. Attend class regularly, and seek help when needed. There are tutors available for just about everything.

Visit UVI during a summer break and explore the possibility to attend. The opportunity to succeed are before you, all you have to do is have a desire to propel to greatness and all the help is hear for you to achieve such desires. If nothing else, the environment is a place where you can study, grow and learn.
