SAPU: Sexual Assault Prevention for Undergraduates

Miami University requires each member of the first-year class to complete SAPU: Sexual Assault Prevention for Undergraduates as part of our comprehensive component of the educational requirements of the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act (“VAWA”), signed into law on March 7, 2014.

In order to complete the Miami University requirements please review the following information carefully.

All first-year Miami University students are required to complete SAPU: Sexual Assault Prevention for Undergraduates by the deadline. Students who do not complete the requirement by the deadlines are subject to an academic hold which will mean you cannot change your schedule and/or register for next semester’s classes.

For those students over age 18, the courses include surveys that measure student attitudes and behaviors. All survey responses are strictly confidential (see statement below). If you are under the age of 18 at the time you start the course(s), you will not be asked to participate in the survey components of the course(s). The university will be able to view your examination score(s); however, your answers to specific questions will not be seen.

To take the course, you will need a computer with Internet access and audio capabilities. If you do not have access to a computer, you can use any publicly available computer with Internet access, such as your local library.
