UTM+ is an engagement incentive program geared to help students get the “plus” out of their UT Martin experience. Students that engage in UTM+ programs and resources will earn entries to be selected for incentives. Each month random students will be selected to receive prizes such as UTM apparel, gift cards, and electronics. The ultimate incentive will be scholarships that will be in awarded each April.
How to do students participate? Simply engage in the activities, resources, and programs designated by the UTM+ program. Weekly email messages will go out to students promoting UTM+ programs.
Entries for incentives will accumulate the full academic year so students earning entries will be eligible for incentives the full year.
UTM+ Programming focuses on three areas: Student Success, Student Development, and Student Well-Being. Programming and services in each focus area earn a different level of entries for the program. Below are the focus area, programs/services, and entry values.
Any questions regarding the UTM+ program should be directed to John Abel, UT Martin Dean of Students, at jabel1@utm.edu
