Student Success

Success as we define it involves a lot of work-- attending class, studying hard. However, the road to success can also be FUN -- developing lasting friendships and growing through participation in activities around campus.

The Office of Student Success is here to help you on your journey! It's all about helping you succeed at Milligan -- and ultimately be a servant-leader to change lives and shape culture.

We want you to succeed. We believe you have the ability to succeed. We want to help you succeed. But, what do you want? We realize that for many students the road to college success can sometimes be challenging, with a variety of academic and non-academic obstacles. Overcoming these obstacles typically involves three basic steps:

  1. Identify the obstacles. What stands in your way? What is keeping you from success at Milligan?
     

  2. Identify strategies for overcoming these difficulties. What options do you have? What resources might help you in your quest?
     

  3. Commit to change. Problems do not vanish spontaneously. If you are driving into a ditch, closing your eyes and crossing your fingers will not help. You must slow down and turn the steering wheel. Will you do it? What do you really want?

Student Success offerings are available to all undergraduate and graduate students.

Build a support system away from home.

Get to know administrators, faculty, and staff beyond the classroom.
