The Office of Health Promotion is dedicated to helping students achieve academic success.  During the Fall semester in 2006, a random sample of University of Utah students participated in the National College Health Assessment.  From this data, we have established the Top Ten Academic Impacts.  These are health conditions that have caused a student to take a lower grade on an assignment or test, recieved a lower grade in a course, or had to with withdraw from a course.
