MAP-Works: Toward greater
student retention and success

MAP-Works®, Making Achievement Possible, is a comprehensive student retention and success program designed for first- and second-year students.

All first-year students and returning first-year students complete a Transition Survey early in the semester to identify any issues that require immediate support and intervention.

The survey measures research-based factors, including academic and social integration to the campus, entering skills and abilities, and student expectations of the college experience.

Advise campus professionals about student issues

Faculty and staff who instruct first-year courses can submit alerts and academic updates for any first and second-year students. The alert system allows faculty to communicate student issues with campus professionals who are designated as Direct Connects.

Examples of issues that can be reported include:

• Missed assignments
• Poor grades on exams, assignments, projects, etc.
• Poor attendance
• Personal problems

Please note: Only new freshmen are participating in MAP-Works.
