RaiderReady Undergraduate Program


“Raider Ready: Freshman Seminar” (RRP 1100 ) is a one-hour freshman seminar course designed for students to successfully manage the transition from high school to Texas Tech University. RaiderReady serves to acclimate, prepare, and guide students as they begin their academic journey at Texas Tech University. The program assists students by developing and honing their academic success skills as they build relationships and community with their fellow Red Raiders. RaiderReady encourages students to engage with campus and develop into well-rounded campus citizens.

RRP 1100  is designed to ensure students’ success in the first semester of their college career. Students who enroll and complete the course have earned higher GPAs, are more connected to Texas Tech, and are more likely to continue on to their second year of studies at Texas Tech.

RaiderReady faculty members and instructors help students plan and prepare for their academic career and identify resources that will help with personal and social success. RaiderReady faculty come from various departments across campus, allowing them to bring a unique perspective to the course. Through small class sizes, RaiderReady allows students the chance to engage with their fellow red raiders and the instructor to build relationships and develop skills that will assist them in navigating their freshman year and beyond.

RRP 1100  is a general university course with sections composed of 20 to 25 students from the freshman class without regard to college or major. It cannot be taken pass/fail. For more information contact Box 45020, Lubbock, TX 79409; www.raiderready.ttu.edu, 806.742.5928.

Freshman student athletes must take both RRP 1100  and LDR 1200 , with the latter designed specifically to meet the unique demands and constraints on first-year student athletes.

RRP 4100  is a senior seminar to ease the transition of students from college to the workplace. Students who take RRP 4100  should experience better results in their job search as a result of course content designed to enhance their ability to identify their own strengths and use those strengths to enter the workplace successfully.
