Mandatory Undergraduate Student Training

The University of California San Diego is committed to maintaining an environment in which all of us can thrive in a community that is free of sex discrimination, including sexual harassment and sexual violence.  Federal law and university policy require that all new students receive education about sexual violence prevention.

Vector LMS is an online program that introduces incoming undergraduate students to our student community, educational environment and behavioral expectations at UC San Diego. Undergraduate students will be required to take two courses: Sexual Assault Prevention for Undergraduates and Diversity, Equity & Inclusion for Students. Students help to shape this community, and we hope that all members of the community take a proactive role in creating a welcoming campus environment for everyone.

Who has to take the Vector online program?

All incoming freshmen, transfer and EAP Reciprocity students are required to complete both of the Vector online programs prior to enrolling in classes.

How long does it take to complete the online program?

Undergraduate students will be required to take two courses:

Sexual Assault Prevention for Undergraduates will take approximately 90 minutes to complete.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion for Students will take approximately 45 minutes to complete.

What is the deadline for completing the online program?

All undergraduates are required to complete both courses by July 23, 2024.

What happens if I don’t take the online program?

If you do not complete both courses, a hold will be placed on your account, and you will not be able to complete your enrollment for fall classes. Please note that completing one courses while failing to complete the other will still result in a hold on your account.

Where is the link to the online program?

Once admitted, you will be automatically assigned the online training. Once assigned, Vector will notify you via your student email, and you may log into Vector and complete the training using your student credentials (@ucsd.edu email and password).

Once I take the course, how long will it take to remove the hold on my account?

Once you have completed the course, the hold will be lifted within 24 hours.

If you have questions regarding the hold, please contact the Center for Student Accountability, Growth, and Education's Compliance team at sage@ucsd.edu or (858) 534-6225.
