Colleges and Universities often have resource centers that emphasize student success. Finding these resources, identifying which are a good fit for your needs and getting involved are key strategies to achieving success.

Thrive Center

The Thrive Center on the University of Arizona campus provides a number of programs and support services to meet students where they are at. These services include, but are not limited to:

Summer Bridge Into the University

The New Start Summer Program is a six-week summer program that allows students to earn college credit, become familiar with the campus and its many resources, and to begin to build a community that will follow them into and through a student’s first year of college.

Peer Mentoring

Thrive’s Peer Mentoring support allows current undergraduate students to benefit from connecting with older students that are well trained in resources that support student success throughout the year.

Financial Wellness Advising

Understanding the basics of managing one’s own personal budget during college is an essential skill that will guide a student toward managing greater budgets as they move into their careers.

TRiO Support

TRiO’s Student Support Services is a federal program on campus that serves first-generation college students, those from low-income households, and students with disabilities. The program serves students throughout their years of college.

Transfer Support

One of the paths to a university degree program is to transfer through the community college. The Transfer Center at the University of Arizona can be a great landing place for community college students who would like guidance in engaging with the university and its resources.

Immigrant & Refugee Support

Colleges and universities have begun establishing centers to serve the needs of immigrant and refugee students. The Immigrant Student Resources (ISR) helps recruit & retain students at the University of Arizona from immigrant & refugee backgrounds. This includes, but is not limited to students with Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), those with undocumented, asylee, TPS, and refugee status, as well as students from mixed-immigration status families.
