SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT
1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Student Affairs plays an integral role in cultivating and supporting multi-faceted student success programs
and related activities. Our departments provide intellectual, emotional, physical, academic and social
development and support to our students. The Student Affairs central office provides oversight to the 35
departments under its purview, facilitates the human resource and budget related needs of our
departments, and coordinates the implementation efforts of our strategic goals. The Vice Chancellor
serves as an advocate for students by ensuring programs and services are in alignment with campus
goals and the needs of our student body. The departments represented in the following service level
agreement are committed to providing a meaningful student experience and do so through a myriad of
programs and services available to our student body.
Student diversity at the University of California, Riverside is a hallmark of this institution. As an
organization, one of our goals is to cultivate a vibrant campus community that is welcoming, inclusive,
respectful and responsive to the unique needs of all community members. The Dean of Students (DOS)
office and Ethnic and Gender (E&G) Program offices facilitate cross cultural awareness while addressing
individual needs and advocating for the betterment of our unique student populations. The E&G Program
offices serve as a liaison between students, alumni and the greater Riverside community, to include local
Native American reservations and community organizations. Many of the departments provide outreach
activities and assist in the recruitment efforts for a diverse student body. The E&G program offices foster
relationships to build inclusion, acceptance, and earnest communication with an emphasis on cultural
diversity. They collectively pursue civic engagement and civil discourse as a means to promote mutual
understanding. Throughout the last academic year, the E&G program offices offered almost 400
educational programs, workshops, speakers, and in-service trainings for students, faculty, and staff in an
effort to create a positive campus environment in alignment with the UCR Principles of Community.
For many students, the educational and discovery process takes place, in large part, outside the
classroom. It is Student Affairs’ goal to provide co-curricular services and programs to enhance student
learning and leadership, personal, and professional development. The Student Life Office plays a major
role in this process by promoting active partnerships with students, faculty, and staff colleagues to foster
and support student opportunities for learning, engagement, leadership development, community
building, and creative expression that complement academic experiences. In addition, Student Life
supports 445 student organizations and 43 fraternities and sororities, comprised of over 9,200 students.
Student Conduct & Academic Integrity Programs (SCAIP) supports the diverse educational community at
UCR by serving as a resource and educating the campus regarding issues of student conduct. SCAIP
promotes student development, accountability and success through consistent enforcement of student
conduct policies and the commitment to a safe, secure, and supportive environment. Student Conduct &
Academic Integrity Programs provides services to the entire UCR campus (comprised of over 21,500
students and 3,100 faculty/staff) and the UCR Palm Desert campus. Last year, SCAIP investigated and
adjudicated 341 academic cases, 320 social cases and 155 housing cases and put on over 100 outreach
events. KUCR is a student-centered, extracurricular, professionally managed campus radio station. It
broadcasts 24/7/365, airs numerous Public Service Announcements per year, produces numerous events
on campus and in the general community, produces thousands of hours of original program content for
our broadcast purposes.

1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Student Affairs engages in strategic enrollment management in an effort to improve student retention,
graduation rates, time to degree, and academic success. The Student Affairs and Enrollment Services
(SAES) unit serves as the primary point of intersection between Student Affairs and academic units.
SAES serves as the campus resource on enrollment management issues and provides recommendations
and consultation to faculty, staff, campus senior leadership, and other constituents on enrollment-related
issues and concerns. SAES departments provide critical services to our students and support their
sustained enrollment. Student Affairs Information Systems (SAIS) provides business analytics and
business intelligence services (using data from various systems and data bases) to the campus and the
Division to facilitate strategic decision-making and support operational needs; provides data system
management support to core administrative Student Affairs departments, represents, and provides
research and evaluation services to Student Affairs departments. Student Affairs Marketing &
Communications (SAMC) is responsible and accountable for defining, conceptualizing, producing,
deploying and managing strategic messaging and marketing campaigns to prospective students and their
parents, admitted students, and continuing undergraduate and graduate students. They fuse web, print,
digital, video and new media to create a seamless experience and message for the student as they move
from prospect to admitted to continuing student and beyond. Student Affairs Technology Services (SATS)
supports the delivery of operational and line of business efficiencies to all departments in the division.
They service and maintain over 800 desktops, 400 server environments, 100 websites, and 120+
software applications within three datacenters. The Career Center develops, prepares, and supports UCR
students as they become the career-ready applicants in a global workplace through accessible programs
and exceptional career preparation and opportunities. TRIO Scholars, a federally-funded grant program
offers academic, social, personal and career advising to 140 UCR students in an effort to improve
retention and graduation rates of first-generation/low-income students or students with disabilities. The
SAES Academic Preparation Programs provide public service to the community. In total, the Academic
Preparation Programs provide services to approximately 4,250 K-16 students annually.
A key initiative for Student Affairs is to enhance recruitment and admissions to become a school of choice
for talented students with the goal of maximizing both the preparedness and diversity of our
undergraduate student body. SAES supports each college in their undergraduate enrollment planning
efforts and works collaboratively throughout the recruitment and eventual matriculation of new students to
realize campus and college undergraduate enrollment goals. Undergraduate Admissions provides the
highest level of service to prospective students, their families and educators, and attracting, selecting,
and enrolling a highly diverse and academically accomplished student body. They work directly with
middle school students, high school students, community college students, counselors and parents with
the objective of increasing exposure of UCR with the end of goal of improving application rates and yield
of both California resident and nonresident high achieving students. The Registrar’s Office takes a
leadership role in the accurate and efficient management of data in the primary functional areas of the
office: registration, student academic records, course and classroom scheduling, classroom utilization,
publications production, and data distribution. The Financial Aid Office provides maximum financial
access to UCR needy students using federal, state, and institutional sources. The Financial Aid Office
administers scholarships for selected populations to meet campus targets, assists campus departments
with disbursement of departmental scholarships, awards, and stipends to selected undergraduate
students, and administers outside agency scholarship disbursements.
