Student support

The Eileen Panigeo MacLean House offers students the opportunity to live in a small community with a cultural focus, allowing them to feel at home in an academic and urban environment, while at the same time supporting their academic efforts and celebrating their successes.
The UAF Rural òòò½´«Ã½ Honors Institute (RAHI) is a six-week summer program that helps òòò½´«Ã½ns adjust academically and socially to college life. University and òòò½´«Ã½ Native leaders created RAHI in 1983. Since then, more than 1,800 òòò½´«Ã½ns have graduated from the program, including more than 175 second-generation alums who were inspired to attend by their parents’ life-changing experience.
Rural Student Services (RSS) is an academic advising department with over 45 years of experience in working with students from all over the state of òòò½´«Ã½. RSS is here to assist you in achieving student success by linking you to current information pertinent to your education, lifestyle, and goals.
