10.1. Student Success

The goals of student success are to identify and remove systemic barriers that inhibit student success, connecting students to opportunities that foster a well-rounded academic experience, while increasing retention, persistence, and graduation.

  • Student success aims to guide, support, and connect students to resources through:
  • Academic advising and course planning.
  • Accessibility services.
  • Tutoring and supplemental instruction.
  • Connecting students to faculty and other campus resources.
  • Supporting the alignment of goals with personalized guidance.

The office of student success provides the following programs and services aimed at improving student retention and on-time graduation: academic advising, peer success coaching, peer-led course and discipline-based tutoring, writing consultation, and supplemental instruction. All programs and services provided by student success are available to students at no cost. The center for student success, located in the lower level of Robinson Hall, houses staff and offers classroom space for academic and student development programming.
