NOVEMBER 2022

Dear Pilot families,

We had a great time meeting our Junior and Senior families during Family Weekend earlier this month! I hope that those of you who were with us had a memorable time on The Bluff! Photos from the weekend can be found below.

While many of us look forward to having our students home for Thanksgiving this week, students who are not going home for break can still have a traditional Thanksgiving meal on Thursday in the Commons between 11:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. Read more about Bon Appetit's Thanksgiving break dining hours.

I am thankful for the privilege of supporting you during your student's college experience. Reach out to parents@up.edu with any questions, concerns, or stories you'd like to share.

In this season of Thanksgiving, may your hearts be full and blessings be many,

Bryn Rose
Associate Director of Parent Engagement

FAFSA Reminder

Continuing students must submit the 2023-24 FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) by the January 15 priority deadline for maximum consideration. If you completed a previous-year FAFSA, you can choose to complete a “renewal”, which will pre-populate much of your information.

How's That Meal Plan Working?

Fall Meal Plans end after the evening meal on Thursday, December 15. Students can self-pay in the Commons on Friday, December 16. Any points left over will roll over into spring semester. Students have until January 20 to change their Meal Plan level for spring semester.
