Are there offices that support Latino/a students?
The two primary support offices of Latinos are the Office for Multicultural Student Involvement and Community Advocacy (MICA) and the Office of Multiethnic Student Education (OMSE). Some colleges have an office or department that serves identity-based populations, such as the Center for Minorities in Engineering. For Latino/as who are part of the LGBT Community or are questioning or exploring their sexuality, contact the Office of LGBT Equity.

Aside from our own aptitude to learn there are skills and techniques, and often routines that strengthen our ability to succeed academically. Here are just some reminders to keep in mind in college.
