Student Success and Retention

http://www.rockford.edu/community/studentsuccess/

The Office of Student Success & Retention (SSR) is available to assist all students in their success at Rockford University in order to achieve the ultimate goal of a proud walk across the stage at commencement. The staff is available to meet with students who are experiencing academic, personal, or financial difficulties.  We work to remove obstacles to students' achieving academic success by working closely with students experiencing academic difficulties and providing a connection to a valuable support network including tutors in the Center for Learning Strategies (CLS), Writing Center, Math/Science Lab as well as faculty/staff mentors and counselors at Lang Health.

SSR initiatives include tracking academic success of all students, monitoring academic alerts received by all students, and working closely with First-Year Advisors and all faculty. We collaborate with offices across campus to determine best practices for proactive interventions, provide connections to resources available on campus and assist students in their transition to Rockford University.
