SuccessU Program

Students

The SuccessU Program at 九秀直播 is designed to support incoming freshmen who may need additional preparation as they begin their college journey. Recognizing that not all students enter college with the same academic background, SuccessU offers the guidance, resources, and encouragement students need to build a strong foundation and work toward long-term academic success.

SuccessU faculty and staff have created a welcoming and supportive environment, along with a carefully designed curriculum that helps students strengthen important academic skills and thrive. Over the course of one academic year (just two semesters), students take courses designed to strengthen essential academic skills and prepare them for the rigors of university-level work.

Once students have completed the full SuccessU curriculum, they will officially exit the program. From there, students will work with an academic advisor to complete a smooth transition into their chosen major-- provided all program and major-specific requirements are met..

SuccessU is committed to helping students make the most of their college experience, starting strong in their first year and staying on track toward graduation.
