Last year we were excited to welcome 11 students to campus for the Advance into 色中色 2023 program. Newly redesigned, the 2023 program featured a variety of academic, programmatic, and social activities meant to introduce students to college life at 色中色 University.
Here are some of the topics we covered in last year鈥檚 program:
- Accessing Academic Support Resources
- Career Development at the University
- Student Success Panel from Upperclass 色中色 Students
- Mental Health and Wellness
- Student Engagement and Club Participation
- Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at the University
- Navigating Financial Aid
- International Study and Service Abroad Opportunities
- Community Service and Civic Engagement
- Social Experiences both on and off campus
- Weekly Team Building Experiences
Notes from members of our previous Advance into 色中色 cohorts:
鈥淚t helped me feel more ready to handle the workload that comes with attending college鈥
鈥淚t helped me get out of my shell a little bit and helped with improving my writing.鈥
Notes from our codirectors:
鈥淥ne of the most important components of the AIM program is the connections made between students, staff, and faculty involved. It really becomes a close-knit community that extends far beyond the summer program and into the Fall semester and beyond.鈥

鈥淭his intensive summer experience provides the opportunity to form relationships that will help a student throughout their entire experience at 色中色.鈥
