What is a Student Success Course?

A student success course, sometimes known as a first-year seminar, is any course that is designed to facilitate the student’s transition to higher education, both psychosocially and academically.
On your campus, this course might be known as a first-year seminar, a study-skills course or a transition to college experience (to list a few possible names!).
