Student Success Center

Mission: The mission of the Student Success Center is primarily focused on student personal and academic success which guides our interactions with students. We seek positive outcomes for students by carefully attending to the barriers they are experiencing with the goal of self-empowerment and behavioral change on the part of those students in a case management approach. In addition, our mission includes support for academic advisors, attendance policy implementation, administering standardized tests, proctoring tests for internal and external instructors and agencies, monitoring course prerequisites, provision of behavioral and counseling related services and referral, overseeing ADA accommodations for students, coordinate articulations and plans of study with high schools and constant evaluation of our work.
