Book Orders Delivered to URock
When you order your textbooks through the UMA Bookstore you may choose Rockland as a shipping location. This saves in your shipping costs! However, to qualify for a URock delivery you must order by December 30th. Books will arrive at URock on January 5th.
Make -Ups
Do you still need to take an exam? Please call the URock office to schedule something special as all official make-up times for fall exams are over.
New Test Taking Policy – Bring an ID!
URock will be checking ID’s for those taking make-up tests during our proctored test times on Tuesdays at 8:00AM and Fridays at 4:00PM.
Spring Registration is Ongoing
Registration for the spring term is open. You can self-register in Maine Street. Check here for all campus registration dates. And, check here for the spring schedule at URock. Schedule an advising appointment for help in choosing the best courses to meet your needs. If you are unable to see an advisor right away, look at your program checksheet and self-register in Maine Street. Then when you meet with an advisor, you can double check your choices.
Advising Appointments
Beverly and Deborah see as many students as time allows. All appointments are booked through the front office staff. If you need to cancel, call the office as you would with any other professional appointment. We have a good number of no shows. This is frustrating when other students are waiting long periods to get an appointment scheduled.
Mental Health Counseling Available Spring Term
Richard Chalmers, a graduate student in mental health counseling at USM will begin a one semester internship which includes offering individual counseling to members of the URock community. This service is free of charge. If you need support with adjusting to school, depression, anxiety, problems in relationships or would just like someone to talk to, please contact either Bev or Deb for a referral. Richard is currently a graduate student at USM, has a Bachelor of Arts Degree in psychology and has studied art at the Rhode Island School of Design. He has worked extensively with mens’ groups including Maine Coast Men. His background includes several meditation retreats at the Insight Meditation Society and Morgan Bay Zendo. Richard believes in an active, creative, problem solving approach to counseling and is looking forward to working at URock. Richard is ready to take referrals over the semester break so be in touch with us.
Snow Cancellations!
It’s the time of year when we need to worry about storms and school closings. If we need to make any cancellations, there are many ways for you to get the news. The URock web site will always have the most up to date information. You can also call the office answering machine at 596-6906, check Village Soup online or TV channels 6, 8 and 13. We try to make decisions two hours before class start times. If the cancellation is during the day, please try to get your information online or through TV channels rather than call the URock office. Our phone lines get jammed up fast and cancellations are a frantic time in the office.
