Academic Success Programs

Academic Success Programs (ASP) provides a holistic approach to student development through a network of comprehensive programs and services. Through an array of retention-based opportunities, transitional programming, tutoring, skill-building seminars, educational and personal advising, and mentoring programs, ASP participants receive supportive services throughout their college experience. ASP seeks to foster collaborative partnerships with University departments, external organizations, and alumni.

Academic Success Programs includes:

• Opportunity Programs

  • Higher Education Opportunity Program (HEOP)

  • National Opportunity Program (NOP)

• Ronald E. McNair Post-baccalaureate Achievement Program (McNair Fellows Program)

• CC/SEAS Tutoring Service

The Federally-Funded Ronald E. McNair Postbaccalaureate Achievement Program prepares its participants for doctoral study. The McNair Fellows Program at Columbia University serves Columbia College (CC), the Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science (SEAS) and General Studies (GS) students.

The CC/SEAS Tutoring Service provides tutorials and skills-based workshops to students who desire additional academic support services. Collaborative partnerships with academic departments, other offices within Student Affairs, outside organizations, agencies, businesses, and alumni, work to enhance ASP's educational services to students.
