Guiding Principles
Take an integrated approach in program design to have all students complete English and math requirements for transfer, as well as expose students to career and degree pathways.
This program design incorporates both academic and nonacademic factors to create a supportive academic environment that gains momentum and promotes rapid process through development education (Tinto, 2013).
Objectives
Retention: Build upon the high retention rates of existing programs that are established on our campus. Continuously engage students every semester to close exit points.
Persistence: Create an FYC pathway that moves students through the remedial sequence pipeline & provide opportunities for students recoup lost credits.
Success: Students will be transfer ready with math and English.
