Student Success is committed to student’s academic success from their first research paper to their first job interview. Located on the second floor of the library, the Student Success Center provides academic support and career counseling for all students.
Please contact us for all academic resources, questions/assistance with online needs, and clarifications on advising information/timelines.
ASE provides support for students who demonstrate the need for remediation in basic academic skills as determined by standardized test scores. C-N ASE Program is overseen by Director, Joshua A. Bivens. Students who are required to take at least two ASE courses will be advised by the Student Success Center until satisfactory completion of the courses.
Writing and reading classes are designed to prepare students for writing compositions (essays) and to improve reading and study skills.
Math courses are designed to prepare students for 100 level college math courses.
A grade of at least a “C” is required to pass the ASE courses, and any failed ASE course must be repeated the next semester.
In addition, students in this program will be required to take ID 120, Academic Strategies. This two hour course is designed to reinforce study skills, time management skills, etc. Students in the ASE program must satisfy all of the academic requirements of the University (see Academic Standing in the catalog).
*Hours are not degree credit hours and cannot be used toward graduation requirements. However, academic skills enhancement credit hours and grades are used in determining athletic eligibility (first year only) and enrollment status for financial aid eligibility when required by the University to be taken.

We provide a variety of services including:
Speak with your academic advisor, return to class, and talk with the professor. Make sure to go to class every day after this.
You should discuss any change in your major/minor with your Academic Advisor and, if necessary, a counselor in Student Success. If you decide to change your major, then an advisor will discuss the appropriateness of the change based on your career goal. You will fill out a Change of Major form, get necessary signatures, and return to Student Success. Once the change is processed, you will be assigned an advisor in your new academic department.
We are located on the second floor of the Stephens-Burnett Library.
