University Writing Center (UWC) and Academic Success Center (ASC) are two of the university facilities that help students enrich their academic experience. While UWC assists students in improving their written and oral communication skills through one to one consulting sessions, online resources, and workshops, ASC works to enhance students’ intellectual performance through academic coaching, supplemental instruction, drop-in tutoring sessions, and peer mentoring. Both of the organizations take a collaborative learning approach to encourage students to develop necessary study skills for academic success and increase student retention.

Understanding the make-up of the college and the surrounding city, it is necessary to ensure these students have the support to be retained through graduation. In this effort, I propose the creation of a three part program that will assist in this effort. This plan will involve

In addition to my gained ability to do outlines, visiting the writing center was also beneficial whenever I received a writing prompt for the next essay. Tutors in the center were able to assess my thesis statements and let me discuss ideas about what to focus on when writing my

One of these programs is the AIM Program. Within this program, the students selected receive academic, financial, and emotional support. First generation students can take advantage of this resource by talking to Peer Advising Coaches to relieve the stress that comes with a heavy academic workload.

San Jose State University is a very large urban campus that has a total enrollment of more than 30,000 students. It is easy to get lost in such huge crowds of students, and even more difficult for shy students, such as myself. I am proud to be a first generation college student attending San Jose State University. Despite its large size and increasing impaction rates, I admire the diversity and resources that the college provides for its students. I applied to SJSU in the fall of 2015 with various goals in mind. However, with a university this large I knew that I would need extra guidance in order to succeed and accomplish my goals.

The purpose of the first year experience program focuses on helping the first year students at the university learn how to perform in the classroom and write collegiate style work. There’s no doubt that students benefit from taking these classes during their first semester of college. For me, there wasn’t high expectations at my previous school of good writing techniques and correct uses of writing tools. During the course of this semester I became a stronger writer and well prepared for the rest of my college career here at Pacific Lutheran University by improving my vocabulary, being more descriptive and altering my writing process to be more successful.
