Retention
Students continue to benefit from ASP programs and support services from the summer program and until graduation. Retention support offers various programs, services, and strategies designed to help students persist from semester to semester and ultimately graduate. This support addresses academic, social, financial, and personal barriers so students feel supported, engaged, and equipped to succeed.
In addition to retention support, ASP helps students engage in academic, social, and co-curricular experiences that enrich their learning and connection to campus. The goal is to foster belonging and motivation by encouraging involvement and meaningful interaction. Some engagement opportunities that are offered to ASP students include:
- The ASP Living Learning Community
- Chi Alpha Epsilon National Honor Society
- ASP Study Abroad Scholarship
