Successes

Student Stories

Student Success departments supports tens of thousands of students every year progress towards graduation by helping them recover from the flu, get tutoring for a difficult class, form friendships, explore their major, find an internship, develop leadership skills, attend (or plan!) events, get mental health counseling, do financial planning and so much more. 

Although we showcase our innovative care management model and predictive analytics, our students' success relies on the entire body of work by our team of professionals.
