First-Year Initiatives at ACE!
The services formerly provided by the Office of First-Year Initiatives are now part of the Academic Center for Excellence. ACE continues to offer Transition Coaching and supports the coordination of Summer College in collaboration with campus partners.
The Academic Center for Excellence helps students successfully transition from high school to college by building the confidence and skills they need to thrive—both in and out of the classroom. Through Transition Coaching, students receive holistic, asset-based support that includes academic skill development, life skills enrichment, and strategies for finding and asking for help. Coaches work with students to develop meaningful relationships, clarify goals, connect with campus resources, and navigate college culture. We’re dedicated to providing all students with the skills, resources, and knowledge needed to successfully navigate the college experience.
