Welcome to the College Success Manual
The College Success Manual is a toolkit that guides college undergraduates of all backgrounds in areas that will help them succeed in their studies. The manual is divided into 5 elements: 
​
  • Establishing your goals
  • Plan towards graduation
  • Build your network
  • Keep your finances in check 
  • Resources 

Each element is self-paced. There are resources included for additional help. The manual also includes videos that go along with each element and free to use for educational purposes. 

You can use the manual as a supplement source to your introduction courses, provide the manual as advisement resource to students, or have the manual available in the career services office.

ELEMENTS of the Manual

Establishing your goals

Establishing goals is one of the most important things in life. Goals help you know what you want to accomplish in life. Without setting goals, you lack focus and direction. Whether it is setting one goal or forty-two goals, it is important to write them down.​ ​

Plan towards graduation 

​Creating a roadmap to graduation can help you track your success. Not writing anything down can get you lost on your road to graduation. Writing down your planned graduation is the start. It is up to you to decide how you are going to reach your planned destination.

Build your network ​

​Networking is one of the most important parts of your professional career. Having an established network takes a while to build and to nurture. Do not expect everyone you meet to be part of or to bring value into your network. There will be times when you meet someone who brings value but then you realize you are being used for the person’s own benefit.

Keep your finances in check  

According to consumer finance research, one of the biggest stresses college students have and a major reason for dropping out is financial stress.  That is why it is critical that you budget your money, reduce the number of student loans, and protect your credit score at all times. 
Graduating from college is not easy but it is not impossible. There is no magic formula or overnight process where you wake up one day and have it all set. You must continuously work on your plan to graduate.  

All the Tools You Need to Succeed

College is fun, exciting, nerve-wracking, and expensive all wrapped in one ball. It is said that college is the last frontier before entering the real world. College can be fun for some and be overwhelming for others.

​No one can guarantee you anything, not even me. I cannot ensure you will graduate in four years using the manual. But what I can say is that the manual will guide you on the right path.

​You alone have the power to make your life a success. The College Success Manual is here to help you along your journey.
