Abstract:

Beyond Orientation: Enhancing Support for First-Year Students
What if orientation wasn't just a starting point but a gateway to a holistic support system for first-year students? Faced with a changing higher education landscape, our Office of Student Success developed a set of interventions that go beyond orientation, sparking sustained engagement and resilience in our students.
Explore principles behind our approach, including dedicated professional advising, specialized first-year seminars, and collaborative efforts between advisors and faculty. Discover the impact of tools like a weekly alert system, course looping, and innovative support mechanisms via a mental health and resources focused web app.
Attendees will have the opportunity to reflect on the role of professional advisors in student success initiatives and gain insights applicable to them. Come take a journey with us to orientation and beyond! |
