In recent decades, the focus of higher education shifted from college access to college success. College officials have found that earning a college credential takes more than impressive high school transcripts and standardized admission test scores. It also requires the development of foresight, drive, and the capacity to concentrate, design, predict and respond to life outside of the classroom. However, students are rarely assessed on these important pre-entry mechanisms until they are at risk of leaving the institution without a credential, and by that time, it may be too late. Only one-third of all first-year students typically graduate in four years. (By appointment only.)
Research shows that 75% of students who leave college without a degree are in good academic standing. That's why we focus on assessing and teaching students how to manage their lives outside of the college classroom. Dr. Williams says, "Students who enter higher education with the foresight, drive, and capacity to concentrate their energy, design a strategic plan, predict plausible obstacles and respond wisely, attain their educational aspirations." These core mechanisms are at the center of the counseling and instruction we provide. The College Life Skills Course® has been evaluated and recommended for college credit by the American Council on Education, the major coordinating body for all the nation's higher education institutions. This student-centered course introduces students to the self-knowledge, self-discipline, and college knowledge essential for success in higher education and beyond. Students are taught the A7MQ® Life Management Method that familiarizes them with the demands of college life; connects them with campus resources, informs them of policies and procedures; and enables them to transition from teenagers to adults.
