Your Story
Each student's college journey is different, based on the individual's experiences, expectations, and life outside the classroom. We should assume that each of their stories, their goals, and the roads they take to reach them, will likely look different as well. It should be anticipated that each student will develop a more individualized approach / strategy in how they will experience their education both inside and outside the classroom. Our office is here to help students of all majors create a plan that supports the development of professional skills to connect them to career opportunities.
