How many students should my program anticipate serving in a given year?
The number of students your SAP serves each year is in fact dependent upon the staffing capabilities of your program. Experienced SAP professionals report that lack of demand by students for assistance is never an issue in operating a SAP successfully; rather, the funding or availability of staff positions sufficient to support student needs is likely the greatest determinant of student service. Practitioners within high-functioning SAPs estimate around 20% of a student body are served by the program.
