Student Success Program
Student Success Program
The Student Success Program is a one-year academic support program that provides small classes and a structured introduction to the university to first year students. Participants are admitted to the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire through the Student Success program because they demonstrate the potential to succeed and may need additional support as they transition to college.
Evaluations from past participants indicate that the program provided them with a solid base, eased their transition from high school to college, and got them off to a good start.
The part that was most beneficial to me was learning to handle college — what I could do to balance priorities, what to do when I'm stressed, who to go to for whatever I need.
What Does This Program Entail?
There are three main components/courses to the Student Success Program. You also get the benefit of other components as well, including tutoring, field trips, and other activities and events.

Being a new college student is a really exciting time, but it can also be a bit overwhelming. Not to worry, because the First Year Experience program helps that transition become a little smoother, and offers lots of fun along the way.
