Academic Success Center

Our Mission Statement

The Academic Success Center fosters student learning and academic excellence by providing a comprehensive array of programs, resources and services that advance academic goal setting and skill development within the college.

Why Come to the ASC?

Tutoring and peer mentoring programs, workshops and seminars as well as several centers and labs are all available free as resources designed to help you succeed in your classes. ASC users say it’s a quiet place to do homework and reviews and a great place to get help right away as needed.

Peer Mentoring Program

The peer mentoring program is comprised of mentors/mentees who have chosen peer mentoring as a specific success strategy. The intention of the peer mentoring program is for the mentors/mentees to cultivate meaningful relationships by becoming independent, motivated lifelong learners.

Early Alert Program (Starfish)

Starfish is a student success and retention solution that interfaces with ANGEL and myLoneStar. It automates student tracking, online appointment scheduling and early alert - a feature that allows faculty to report their concerns about a student to those on campus who are trained to provide help.

Also, students can use Starfish to schedule an appointment with an advisor, instructor, etc. at a time that works for them.

Accuplacer Review Sessions (Math)

The ASC provides workshops, test-based reviews and practice material to help with placement testing which determines your current level of skills and knowledge in reading, writing and math.
