Benefits of U:PASS

Students can benefit in a range of ways by being involved in the U:PASS program:

  • Better grades
  • Improved learning techniques as there is a focus on how to learn and study effectively
  • Students learn things from other students involved in U:PASS as well as sharing their own knowledge with others
  • A chance to ask questions without feeling embarrassed – U:PASS program material is not assessable
  • Improved communication skills
  • More confidence in their abilities
  • Better understanding of subject material
  • Access to mock exam questions and other resources provided by Peer Leaders
  •  A chance to interact socially and form friendships with other students in an informal, collaborative environment
  •  More free time – some students comment that one hour of U:PASS Learning is equivalent to a number of hours of individual study
