Drake—big enough to be interesting, small enough to have your back.

Know what? You can do this.

College can be a big adjustment, but Drake’s resources will help you get started on the right foot and make the most of your time here.

Support Resources

WELCOME WEEKEND Welcome Weekend is kind of like your official initiation into the Drake family. It’s a great opportunity to meet new friends, interact with students in your First-Year Seminar, and get to know your Peer Mentor/Academic Consultant (more on that below). You’ll also meet with faculty advisers and other Drake employees who will help you on your college journey.

PEER MENTOR/ACADEMIC CONSULTANT PROGRAM Everybody can use a little help with huge life changes. That’s what your Peer Mentor/Academic Consultant (PMAC) is for. PMACs are upper-class student volunteers who are here to help you succeed during your first year; they help you adjust to life away from home and make sure you get the most out of your time at Drake. They also serve as an ongoing resource for any questions you may have— they’re only a text away.

Welcome Home Roommates! Communal bathrooms! Living in the residence halls can seem a bit overwhelming at first. But it will wind up being one of the best experiences of your college career.

4

Residence Life

If you live on campus (see Drake’s two-year residency requirement, page 5) and are in your first year, you will be assigned to a hall with other first-year students in one of Drake’s five undergraduate residence halls (there are eight halls in all).

You will also be part of a living/learning community with others in your First-Year Seminar, allowing you to spend time with other students who share your interests and priorities.

The process begins when the housing and meal plan selection contract is completed. To do this, go to my.drake.edu and click on the fork & knife icon. Each student will have until the first Thursday of classes to adjust the meal plan that they have selected for the semester, if they wish to change their selection.

ROOM ASSIGNMENTS Most first-year students will be assigned to double rooms, in accordance with their preferences, in the order in which contracts and $250 housing deposits are received as well as First-Year Seminar enrollment. In addition, there are 40 threeperson rooms and 40 single-person rooms in the first-year halls.

Coed/single-gender floors

All Drake University residence halls are coed. The floors can be either single-gender or mixed-gender. Single-gender floor assignments may be requested by a student by contacting the Office of Residence Life at housing@drake.edu by June 30. We will do our best to honor this request, but it cannot be guaranteed.

ROOMMATE REQUESTS ALL ROOMMATE REQUESTS MUST BE RECEIVED BY JUNE 30.

If you have a specific roommate request you may search for them on the housing and meal plan portal by going to my.drake.edu and clicking on the fork & knife icon in the Roommate Selection Management page using the Search for Roommates section once you have completed your housing application. After you have requested a roommate, the person’s name will display in the Requested Roommates section. Once the request is accepted, your roommate’s name will display in the Accepted Roommates section.

All roommate requests must be mutually accepted and confirmed

by June 30 in order for you to be assigned together. Individuals without a specific roommate request may be paired with and assigned a roommate automatically. If you and your mutually accepted roommate are not registered for the same First-Year Seminar (FYS), it is possible one may not reside in the same hall as their FYS in order to honor the roommate request.

Any room change requests MUST be initiated by the student in order to be considered, as this is the person whose name appears on the Housing Contract, which is a legal document.

ROOMMATE ASSIGNMENTS

Roommate assignments will be available online starting Friday, July 30.

To access your room assignment, follow these steps (after the dates designated above): 1. Log into myDrake at my.drake.edu 2. Click the myDUSIS icon in the section Commonly Used Apps 3. Scroll down and click on Housing Roommates 4. Select term Resources for roommate success Often, students find themselves moving into a room shared with someone they haven’t met. To build successful relationships from the very beginning, there are two resources we strongly encourage you to use: The Roommate Relationship Success Guidelines and the Roommate Agreement. Find both by visiting drake.edu/residencelife.

LIFE IN THE HALLS Drake has an on-campus living requirement for all full-time students their first two years out of high school.

Drake’s two-year residency requirement: Full-time students must live in a Drake residence hall for the first two years out of high school.

Exceptions include individuals who are married or live within a 45mile radius of Drake University with their parent(s)/legal guardian and have requested, and received, written approval from the Office of Residence Life to live off campus as a commuter student.

COMMUTER APPLICATION Students who qualify for an exception to the two-year residency requirement and are seeking commuter status must submit a commuter request at my.drake.edu (click on the fork & knife icon) to choose the commuter option application and receive written approval from the Office of Residence Life.

If you have any questions, please email housing@drake.edu.

If you haven’t yet, introduce yourself on Drake’s Class of 2025 Facebook group: facebook.com/groups/Drake2025.

It’s a great place to find a roommate!

by Drake, and is located adjacent to Drake’s campus on 30th Street.

LAUNDRY When it's laundry time, you'll be able to make use of modern and convenient facilities located on the ground level of each residence hall. There is no charge to students for washers or dryers.

ADDITIONAL AMENITIES/FAQ

Bedding

All halls on campus have extra-long twin beds, measuring 6'6" x 3'. Residents supply their own sheets, blankets, bedspreads, and pillows. Linen packages may be purchased through the Residence Hall Association.

Lofts

Most first-year residence hall rooms in the Quads contain wooden beds that can be lofted or used as twin beds. Only University provided lofts are permitted in the residence halls. Some rooms on the ground floor of Morehouse Hall may have bunkable beds.

Pets

All pets except fish are prohibited, as they can create safety and sanitation hazards in the residence halls. Animals “just visiting” are also not permitted in the residence halls. Fish are the only acceptable pets permitted and must be kept in tanks no larger than 10 gallons. Fish should be removed from the residence halls during winter and spring breaks. Exceptions include animals registered with Student Disability Services such as service dogs. And, of course, Griff II, our live mascot!

Telephones

Drake University does not offer land line phone jacks in the residence hall rooms. It is encouraged that students obtain some form of mobile/cell phone as a mode of communication.

Internet

Wireless internet service is available in every residence hall.

Wired connectivity is available upon request for devices that cannot connect wirelessly.

Storage

There is no storage available on campus. Any resident needing additional space to store their items will need to seek a storage location off campus.

HOUSING IN YEAR TWO AND BEYOND After the first year, you’ll encounter new choices in housing. You can live in a single, double, triple, or four-person room in one of several upper-class residence halls. And, after your first two years on campus, you can choose to live in fraternity/sorority housing or apartments in the neighborhood surrounding campus or request on-campus housing.

Off-campus options include Drake West Village, a fully furnished, student-only apartment complex for juniors and seniors as well as Pharm.D., law, and graduate students who are beyond two years from high school graduation. (Full-time students must live

Laundry tips Washer: 29-minute cycle Dryer: 45-minute cycle Note that 3-in-1 washer/dryer product or pod products should NOT be used with the laundry machines at Drake. High efficiency detergents should be used instead.

INSURANCE As you prepare to bring your personal property to campus, you’ll want to take a look at your family’s homeowner’s insurance to verify coverage for loss or damage.

Drake University carries no insurance covering personal property that may be stolen, destroyed, and/or damaged. The University suggests that students and their families obtain insurance coverage for all personal property if they do not have such coverage already.

If you do not have homeowner’s insurance to cover your items, renter’s insurance is another option. This covers personal and University property while in your care, both on and off campus.

Some resources on available coverage options and costs are available at nssi.com or collegestudentinsurance.com.

SUBSTANCE USE

Alcohol policy

Here at Drake, we strive to educate students about alcoholrelated issues. You will receive information on a variety of topics, including signs of an alcohol problem, available campus and off-campus resources, and issues that drive substance abuse.

Students receiving an alcohol violation may be asked to take alcohol education classes and/or write a reflection paper.

Drake prohibits the consumption or possession of alcoholic beverages by persons under the legal age. University sanctions include fines between $100 and $200—which may be used to support campus wide alcohol education programming—and other penalties increasing in severity with subsequent violations. A full description of Drake’s alcohol and drug policy can be found in the Student Code of Conduct. Additional policies can be found in the Residence Hall Handbook Code of Conduct. Students who receive an alcohol violation may have their parents notified.

Smoking

The Drake campus is a smoke-free environment as per an Iowa State Law enacted July 2008. E-cigarettes and hookah pipes are not allowed on campus. Hookah pipes may not even be stored in the residence halls. Should a resident be found responsible for smoking or vaping in their residence hall room, that resident will be assessed a cleaning fee of $250 at the time of each incident.

Flowers, mylar balloons, and cookies? All awesome. But please, hold the latex. Because some students can have serious, possibly life threatening, allergic reactions to latex, Drake strives to be a latex-free campus.

Any delivery containing latex, such as balloons, will be returned to the florist/company of delivery.

Even the brightest students can benefit from a little support now and then, whether that means gaining study skills to conquer a tough class or elevating that shaky B to a solid A. Drake’s Office of Access and Success helps you excel by offering you individual support, workshops and seminars, and academic tools and strategies to tackle everything from organization to study skills to test anxiety. Many courses also offer small group discussion sessions, peer assistance, and lab sessions to supplement your classroom experience.

Career Services

It’s never too early to start thinking about career development—your future is built with each internship, research study, service project, or part-time job. Drake’s Professional and Career Development Services (PCDS) supports you both inside and outside the classroom, offering tools for professional career development as well as career exploration and assessments. Be sure to take advantage of networking opportunities, résumé/cover letter development, mock interviews, and portfolio development. Visit drake.edu/career for customized programs and contact information.

CAREER AND INTERNSHIP FAIRS PCDS brings local and global businesses and graduate schools to you at an all-University career fair each spring. Targeted fairs are also held for students pursuing pharmacy, actuarial science, and accounting/finance.

GRADUATE/PROFESSIONAL SCHOOL PREPARATION The decision to pursue post-graduate education requires some self-reflection. PCDS can guide you in this process and, once your path is clear, help you research your program of choice at a number of schools. They’ll also assist with applications, references, and Student Disability Services.

Student Disability Services

The goal of the student disability services, part of the Access and Success office, is to help students with disabilities participate in all Drake programs and activities. We can help with any type of disability, including: • • • • •

Learning disabilities, attention disorders Physical disabilities Chronic health problems Psychiatric disabilities Visual, speech, or hearing disabilities

If you are interested in learning more about services, please contact the coordinator as early as possible (see page 18).

Honors Program A PERSONAL APPROACH TO INTERDISCIPLINARY LEARNING Are you ready to challenge yourself with intensive, discussion-based courses? Drake Honors Program alumni succeed in the complex world and utilize communication skills developed from sustained engagement in broadly multi-disciplinary analytical and creative thinking. Honors Program courses are limited to 20 students or fewer and favor discussion over lecture, with assignments and evaluation based more on reading, writing, and continued revision than tests and exams. The Honors Program also provides a rich environment for academic and social interaction with peers and faculty in numerous settings, from dinners and Jeopardy-style games with faculty, to off-campus discussions and events.

Declare the honors track to fulfill Drake Curriculum requirements by taking six honors classes from at least three different disciplines.

Reach for the designation of University Honors with successful completion of a broadly interdisciplinary Honors Senior Thesis.

Visit drake.edu/honors for participation requirements.

Community Engaged Learning and Service

During your time at Drake, you’re likely to participate in some sort of service opportunity—more than 80 percent of all Drake students do. Opportunities at Drake are many and include working with a community organization, school, or nonprofit; taking part in a travel seminar to serve communities in the United States and abroad; taking a service-learning course; or collaborating with local organizations or neighborhood youth to affect change right here in Des Moines.

Visit drake.edu/cel for more information on how you can get involved or browse drake.edu/volunteer for volunteer opportunities.

Study Abroad

Studying abroad is one of the most rewarding experiences you can have in college. You’ll learn about different cultures, make new friends, gain fresh perspectives, and become a more responsible global citizen. Living and studying abroad can also develop your personal, intellectual, and professional skills and abilities.

An experience abroad is also affordable—comparable in cost to a semester at Drake—and scholarships are available. Students with heavier course loads can also choose to join programs for shorter durations, such a J-term or summer abroad. You can travel almost

anywhere: Drake offers programs in more than 60 countries. With so many options, more than a third of 2020 graduating seniors joined an international program during their time at Drake.

NEXT STEPS • Visit drake.edu/global/studyabroad to view programs and to learn more about study abroad at Drake.

• Talk with Global Engagement (studyabroad@drake.edu) to discuss the best program options for you.

World Languages and Cultures When you learn another language at Drake, the experience extends well beyond the classroom. Yes, you will gain functional proficiency in a language other than your own, but you will also develop cultural understanding. You can prepare to study or live abroad, enhance professional development, and pursue personal interests while working alongside experienced and enthusiastic professors.

Speaking is the focus of each course, although writing, listening, and reading are also addressed.

Whether you major or minor in art, just want to take a few classes, or are simply a fan, Drake offers ample opportunities for you to engage with visual art.

Drake’s Harmon Fine Arts Center is home to two galleries: Anderson Gallery, which has 1,800 square feet of exhibition space to showcase the work of students, faculty, and other artists; and Weeks Gallery, a space for alternative exhibitions.

Student Employment

Students may seek employment on campus through Human Resources. Students can view postings and apply for jobs on the system or through the means provided by the employers (company website or with a company representative). The system allows students to schedule on-campus interviews directly on the system.

To access, log into myDrake, click Campus Resources, and then click the Handshake icon. While any student may work on campus, hiring priority is given to those who qualify for work-study. Federal workstudy awards are available to students based on calculated financial need and determined by Student Financial Planning.

If you qualify, during the summer prior to your first semester at Drake, you may have a work-study job assigned to you. During the time frame of Orientation, you may complete the student employment application online (through the last orientation session, or by June 30). Then in August, you will receive an email to your Drake account indicating a possible assignment, which you may then accept or decline.

If you decline the job assignment or if you do not qualify for workstudy, you can still seek on-campus employment. Online tools are available to help you locate employment opportunities.

Before employment begins, federal and state employment paperwork must be completed. This consists of the I-9 Employment Eligibility Verification, which confirms eligibility to work in the United States and requires proper documentation to complete (common forms of identification are your original birth certificate, social security card, or passport), as well as federal and state W-4s.

Direct deposit is required of all students who work on campus.

See drake.edu/hr/student for further details and relevant links, or email student.employment@drake.edu with any questions.

Parents: Keeping you in the loop Parent Advisory Council

At Drake we encourage parents to get involved in their student’s education. The mission of the Parent Advisory Council is to facilitate the partnership between parents and University faculty, staff, and administrators in order to enhance the educational and life experiences of Drake students. The Parent Advisory Council’s role is to serve as a liaison between parents and the University in supporting and upholding the mission of the University and its students. Visit drake.edu/parents-families/parentadvisorycouncil for more information.

16

Access to Student Records

We understand that as a parent, you are invested in your student’s success. However, we are not legally able to share certain records with you without your student’s approval. All student education records (including GPA) are subject to the provisions of the federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) and, subject to exceptions stated in FERPA, are not available for inspection by others without a written release from the student. A student’s medical records will also not be released without signed consent from the student in accordance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). There are certain circumstances where education or medical records may be released to parents or others without the student’s written consent.

Visit drake.edu/accounts/ferpa to read more on Drake’s policy.

ACADEMIC RECORDS There are two ways to gain access to your student’s academic records: 1.

Your student may give you access to view his/her midterm and final grades, unofficial transcript, or hold(s) on his/her account.

OR 2. You may submit proof that the student is a dependent for tax purposes. Proof is considered to be a copy of the most recent year’s federal tax form showing that you claim your student as a dependent. This form should be submitted to the office of the Registrar. Access will then be created for you, and your student will be notified that access has been given. A new request will need to be submitted annually to maintain access.

It is Drake’s philosophy to empower students to take responsibility for their academic success, personal development, and professional accomplishments. But Drake also recognizes the importance of maintaining strong parent-student relationships and fostering open communication throughout the college years. Therefore, it is our goal to inform both you and your student of these policies and procedures and help you direct your student to appropriate resources to address his or her own concerns. While option 1 is preferable, you can discuss with your student whether this is a good choice for your family.

YOUR STUDENT’S BILL Before a parent or guardian can see their student’s bill, the student must authorize them as a user. The student and authorized parents/ guardians may access and/or pay Drake bills via our bill payment system, TouchNet. Your student can provide access to you.

College is definitely an investment. Drake offers the financial assistance and expert support to help your family manage it all.

Financial Planning Did you know that nearly all Drake undergraduate students receive either merit-based or need-based financial assistance? Drake provides the information and services to assist you and your family in understanding the options for financing an education—one which may be more affordable than you think. In fact, Drake awards more than $76 million in scholarships and grants each year, in addition to federal and state grants students may qualify for.

It’s not too late for you to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Submitting the FAFSA ensures that you will be reviewed for eligibility for state and federal financial aid as well as Drake’s need-based grants. Visit the Office of Student Financial Planning website (drake.edu/finaid) for more information about the FAFSA and aid available for Drake students.
