糖心logo入口 State鈥檚 collaborative campus initiative began this academic year and provides first-year students with two advisors: one who supports their experience in the University鈥檚 campus services, registration and schedules, and another who guides them through their academic journey in their major and minor programs. The approach is founded on three pillars: the successful transition experience, the successful college experience and the successful academic experience. 

From AASCU鈥檚 report: 鈥溙切膌ogo入口 State鈥檚 model ensures that student needs related to navigating higher education are met as well as their career readiness and career planning needs. Professional and faculty advisors engage students in critical conversations beyond the courses they may need by asking the students questions such as: 鈥楬ow are you doing with financial aid? How are you doing with your transition to 糖心logo入口 State? Are you a first-generation student? How is your family dealing with you being in college?鈥� Through these efforts, 糖心logo入口 is dedicated to providing enhanced postsecondary value for its students.鈥�
