Four Year Plan in UNV 101
Pace Path Four Year Plan: In this assignment you will create a Pace Path Four Year Plan for your personal,
academic, and professional goals for the time you spend at Pace University The plan should be uploaded to
ePortfolio in order to have your plan available through your four years at Pace Your plan should be flexible and will evolve over time
Your individual plan should explain why you chose your major or explain why you are interested in the possible majors you wish to explore Your plan should also include the courses you plan to take, the co-curricular
activities/goals in which you plan to engage, and identify possible sources of coaching/mentoring both within Pace and outside (e.g., professionals in your possible chosen field) You will use the template provided to record your Four Year Plan Please note that co-curricular activities/goals should have duration, supervision, and work product associated with them However, one-time events, such as workshops and lectures, can often be highly valuable for students and are highly encouraged These events can serve to help you find long term activities/goals for your Pace Path Duration means that activities are ongoing across a semester, summer, or year Supervision could come from faculty, staff, advisors, and coaches/mentors Work product should provide evidence of success
At the end of your plan you will write a 450 to 500 word reflection on how you will accomplish your personal,
academic, and professional goals in your four years at Pace Your reflection should consider your own background (e.g., experiences, family, education, culture, etc.) The following should guide your reflection:
1 What did you expect from creating the Pace Path Four Year Plan before you did it?
2 What resulted after creating your plan? Discuss how you approached your plan Highlight how you will accomplish your personal, academic, and professional goals while at Pace University How will making the most of your experience at Pace help to differentiate you when you graduate?
3 What did you learn from this experience? What did you like the most from this experience? How do you think this experience will benefit you? What action could be taken to make this experience more meaningful for you?
This plan will serve as a guide for your personal Pace Path in order to make the most of your Pace experience Each semester as you will grow, learn, and reflect, you will modify your plan Making the most of your time at Pace University will help you differentiate yourself as you pursue your interests and goals NOTE: For many freshman it may not be possible to plan completely to senior year Your plan should start in UNV 101, but should become fuller
as you grow throughout your time at Pace
The Pace Path is an innovative four-year program unique to Pace University that helps each student become successful in college, career, and life Each student develops strengths in managing oneself, interpersonal relations, and organizational awareness through co-curricular activities within an academic program This is accomplished through collaboration with Pace faculty, advisers, staff, coaches, and mentors
The following is a rubric on what is expected for your Pace Path Four Year Plan The rubric is intended to assist both the student and instructor in planning and evaluating the plan However, the plan should be flexible enough to meet your unique needs and goals Following the plan’s template there is space for the reflection and faculty feedback and/or student notes This should be used as a guide for your Pace Path Four Year Plan Remember to type your plan directly into the template so you can upload the plan to ePortfolio, which will allow you to edit the plan during your four years at Pace University

Trang 10Narrative Reflection
When I created my Pace Path Four Year Plan I didn’t expect myself to think about my future at Pace as much as I had to I thought it was a pointless activity to do, to plan out my four years accordingly But surprisingly I realized
I actually have many goals for the future at Pace, and this plan allowed me to formulate my ideas in a more fashioned way
After I created my plan, I realized planning out my future was a lot more nerve-racking than I thought I approached my plan in a cautious manner.
I wasn’t sure how to go about it I only had my freshman year planned out, the rest of the years I had no clue whatsoever to put down as my Academic, Personal, or Professional goals It was very overwhelming to even think about
my future and what I want to accomplish I will accomplish my goals here at Pace, by keeping an open positive mind For example my academic goals are
to keep high grades, and keep up with all my work My personal goals are to stay positive about my future and my friend group I want to develop my relationship with my suitemates through the years and my new college friends and cherish the memories I make with them My professional goals are to basically keep a job throughout my time at college, and find internships and jobs somewhat related to my major in the future It’ll enhance my qualities as a person and make my chances for nursing school even better in the future
I learned from this experience that planning out your future is beneficial in helping you discover what you want out of your college experience I enjoyed planning out my academic and personal goals I know I want to establish a solid friend group here at college and let it carry on through the years I also know my academic goals are definitely to keep a 3.0 GPA and
