What are the Freshman Academies?
The Freshman Academies will bring incoming full-time freshmen together by related program(s) of study with faculty and student affairs support staff, thereby creating smaller a more personalized learning experience. Their design represents a strengthening of the College’s commitment to student success with a three-fold focus to: • Provide a more coordinated student services and academic undergraduate experience • Improve retention and graduation rates • Build students’ commitment to their future education and lifelong careers.
