RaiderReady Program


RaiderReady Program includes four one-credit seminar courses meant to assist students in academically transitioning and maintaining success throughout their college years and beyond.

RaiderReady: First Year Seminar (RRP 1100 ) is a one-credit course designed for students to successfully manage the transition from high school to Texas Tech University. RRP 1100  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. RRP 1100  encourages students to engage with campus and develop into well-rounded campus citizens. 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.

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.

RaiderReady: Second Year Seminar (RRP 2100 ) is a sophomore-level course to assist students in successfully navigating their second year of college. This course covers topics such as living off-campus and choosing a career, to budgeting and stress management. RRP 2100  continues to help students feel connected to campus and remind them of resources and opportunities available to them.

RaiderReady: Service and Research Seminar (RRP 3100 ) is a junior-level course to begin preparing students for life after graduation. Through this course, students will gain knowledge and experience in service learning and research as well as learn applicable leadership skills.

RaiderReady: Experience and Professional Skills (RRP 4100 ) is a senior seminar course 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.

RRP courses are general university courses that cannot be taken pass/fail. For more information contact Box 45020, Lubbock, TX 79409; www.raiderready.ttu.edu, 806.742.5928.
