Academic Support

Success in the classroom happens when students can take charge of their learning. Whether it鈥檚 fine-tuning tactics for time management or brushing up on the nitty gritty details from the syllabus, our academic support services are here to help students thrive.

From orientation to learning support, we fondly call it the 鈥淗AC.鈥� It’s where students of all abilities jumpstart their academic careers.

When it comes to choosing courses, you won鈥檛 do it alone. Academic advising starts even before you matriculate in your first-year, and grows with you.

The library is our academic hub, where we advance knowledge, spark creativity, and connect communities. Search collections; try out the Makerspace; access books, laptops, and more.

A strong start matters! That鈥檚 why student leaders called Captains welcome new YJs and help them navigate their transitions with a special first-semester class called Yellow Jacket Success Strategies.

They are the ones you鈥檒l remember forever – mentors, advisors, and champions for your academic journey.

鈥淎s a busy student-athlete, the Higgins Academic Center has been pivotal to my academic success at 果冻传媒app. I have worked with subject-based student tutors every semester of my college career, and learning both content and study strategies from my peers has helped me to build my academic skills over my four years here.鈥�
