ºÃÉ«TV

ºÃÉ«TV is invested in our students’ academic success. In collaboration with faculty and staff, students develop an academic plan that not only includes a course sequence but also builds in co-curricular activities, such as internships, needed support services, and student engagement opportunities.  Advising is an integral part of student success and is a collaborative effort that encourages students to develop clear educational plans and choose realistic life and career goals.   

Students are involved in career development from the time they enter ºÃÉ«TV through graduation and beyond. Early in a student’s educational journey, career exploration and planning allow for understanding of how a degree can map to a career. As students progress through college, career readiness competencies are promoted and intentionally aligned with academic plans. The university community supports students to engage in experiential learning, and ultimately, obtain meaningful employment or pursue further education.

With the shift away from transactional roles, financial health is viewed as part of a student’s wellness rather than a tuition transaction.  Financial literacy encompasses both fiscal health and money management.  In addition to an academic and career plan, students must also have a plan that helps them understand not only how to pay for college but also includes budgeting for living expenses while on their educational journey. 

There are myriad factors that contribute to student well-being.  At ºÃÉ«TV, we strive to recognize, respect, and celebrate those unique experiences and intersectional identities of our students.  As a campus community we endeavor to create effective support networks to assist students experiencing health and well-being issues.  The faculty and staff believe that for students to be successful, individual basic needs must be met through campus and community partner collaboration. 

The ºÃÉ«TV community recognizes that students thrive when they feel a life-long connection to campus and have a sense that they matter.  Acceptance, feeling valued, and social support are vital to student success. As such, faculty and staff strive to ensure students feel a sense of belonging through engagement, positive interactions, and support networks both on and off campus to foster a life-long connection to Norse Nation.
