Ujima

Ujima Passport and Expectations

Expectations

All students accepted into the program can succeed, but please note that Ujima is a challenging program for serious students only.  The program requires that students commit to consistent class attendance and tutorial study to develop their writing and math skills.  In addition, the program expects full participation by students in classes and the mentoring project to fully address their needs as future transfer students.  Students in Ujima should not be employed for more than 20 hours per week (see Director if there are questions about this policy).  The following contract explains the type of expectations that we have for you as a member of Ujima:

  • Students must maintain a 2.5 grade point average
  • Students must be enrolled in both a math and English course for the Fall and Spring semester, without dropping the course
  • Students must be enrolled in at least 12 units for the Fall/Spring semester and you will be strongly encouraged to take at least one course during the Winter and Summer semester.
  • Students must come into the Academic Athletic Zone for tutoring/study hours for at least three hours per week
  • Students must have positive attendance in all of their courses, particularly in their Ujima courses (i.e., English 100/1A and 1000X, Math, Counseling 12/17)
  • Students will contribute no more than $100 to the overall cost of attending educational excursions (which will go toward airfare, buses, lodging, food, etc.)
