One Stop Student Services

• Financial Wellness
• We’ve been busy conducting outreach presentations for campus stakeholders. We have collaborated with the Multicultural Center for Academic Excellence (MCAE), Carlson School of Management Undergraduate Business Board, the Asian Pacific American Resource Center (APARC), Athletics, and the Wallin Scholarship Group! 
• We are wrapping up our busy outreach season, and looking ahead to the 2023 Higher Education Financial Wellness Alliance (HEFWA) Summit in July. The summit is hosted by the University of Oregon in Eugene. 
• Graduate Student Services and Progress (GSSP)
• GSSP is quickly approaching the busiest time for degree clearances. The team is currently focused on advising students and departments on graduation steps. 
• The GSSP Coordinator search is currently underway, and we hope to have the position filled very soon. 
• One Stop’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Committee
• We’re in the midst of facilitating an April Booster series for One Stop, GSSP, and UVS. The Booster series are small group discussions focused on DEI themes. This installment is centered on best practices for supporting students and their families who are new to the University, and have little knowledge of the University/financial aid complexities. 
• UMR One Stop
• UMR One Stop welcomes Caleb Smith (see below)! 
• UMR One Stop has also been presenting to prospective and incoming students and preparing for New Raptor Advising & Registration (NRAR).
• Student Account Assistance
• Fall registration has started, which means a jump in contacts from students with past due balances and requests for hold appeals.
• With the end of spring term approaching, graduating students were sent electronic invites to complete their Loan Exit Counseling. This results in a lot of calls and emails from students asking if this is a necessary process, and from others who are not actually graduating but haven’t changed their EGT.
• New Student Orientation
• One Stop preparations are underway for summer orientation. One Stop will be presenting a general One Stop information session as part of Parent and Family orientation and delivering a breakout session—Managing College Costs—for students and families. Students and families are encouraged to visit One Stop as part of the first-day resource fair, or whenever is convenient while they are visiting campus. New student and transfer orientation begins June 1!
